Dicha Pasada
Julio Sosa
Past Happiness
Yesterday when I saw you so haughty
Walking with the one who was my rival
I thought of those fifteen springs
That gave more beauty to your gaze
But today you are not the same as before
The light that was in your eyes has gone out
You have a bitterness in your countenance
And no one will know it like I do
And even if you deny that you have suffered
I know well that you have lived
A thousand anguishing hours
And that in your chest have remained
The joys of the past
Like withered roses
If you left me for another man
I don't want to reproach you
For how badly you loved me
You are a woman and I forgive you
Because in the end with your abandonment
You have made me happier
I am like the bee, I fly freely
And in search of another love my soul goes
For when I need some comfort
There is another who gives it to my life
And since it was your pleasure to despise me
I will never return to your side
I pay you as you have known to pay me
And I will forget all that past
