Chacarera Del Triste

Why do I want to live
With a broken heart,
Why do I want life
After what you did to me.

I gave you my heart
Yours you gave to me
With deceit towards mine
You tore it to pieces.

Oh! Why were you so cruel
When I expected your honesty
Why did you play with me
My love, if I idolized you.
I forgot the whole world
Disappointments and bitterness
But those you did to me
My love, linger in my soul.

II
I'll spend my time singing
Very sad this chacarera
May it be that it makes me happy
At the moment of my death.

Continue guitar, continue
Continue crying like me
Companion until death
Continue consoling my soul.

I already know the remedy
Why should I look for it
My soul is so broken
That it will be useless to achieve it.
Continue, guitar, continue
My love, for what you did to me
Strumming all night long
The sad chacarera.
