Cenizas de Mis Años
Lito Romero
Ashes of My Years
What do you expect chacarera
From my sorrowful soul
My verses are laments
That life left me
Seeds of my fate
Where in the dark they are born
The flowers of memory
Watered with bitterness
I was burning misfortunes
In the embers of silence
Ashes of my years
Carried away by the winds
Tucu-tucu of the soul
Show me your joy
That even if your light goes out
It will light up one day
I calm my anxieties
The reins of affection
Caresses from my mother
That she left me as a child
Furrowed with hopes
Calloused by time
Were my illusions
Waves of feelings
Night of silver light
Illuminating the thoughts
Of those who kill sorrows
Looking inside themselves
Tucu-tucu of the soul
Show me your joy
That even if your light goes out
It will light up one day
