Por Tu Abandono Padezco

How beautiful that time was but it has become very sad
The day you left and left me in solitude
My saddened heart demands that I look for you

The toba with the robust also miss you with me
I notice it in their barks that fade in the afternoons
Little by little, the cats also began to abandon their nest

The ranch is not the same without your whistle and word
Over there in the corral, they miss you looking towards the house
The obera and the black pampa that you milked early in the morning

The wound is very deep, I suffer from your abandonment
Perhaps the crickets with their concert will alleviate me by singing
To live forever in pain, I know I don't deserve it

The foliage of the once-flourishing tree is drying up
The birds have already gone and I have even seen the prickly pears
As if missing the moon, they did not bloom last night

From the forest, they no longer sing like in happy times
The chuñas and the crespines among the usual murmurs
I hear mournful notes, the song of the partridges

I won't ask you to come back even though your absence kills me
The cicadas no longer sing out of forgetfulness, out of laziness
And the cricket in my throat has fallen silent from sadness

The wound is very deep, I suffer from your abandonment
Perhaps the crickets with their concert will alleviate me by singing
To live forever in pain, I know I don't deserve it
