Zamba de Amor Y Mar
Los Guaranies
Zamba of Love and Sea
May my song not reach you sad
Because I put a smile on my guitar
To fill with life and color
The loneliness that is growing in your gaze
Look, the moon is split in half
And yet it shines the same.
Just for the pleasure of singing
That's why I let the wind inflate my handkerchief
Owner of my time and captain
I climbed the main mast with so many dreams
I came to walk with my song and continue
For my path is long and goes on.
I can cry and smile
My heart stayed here
Sea of love, silver and pain
With watery eyes you will see me leave.
I went to walk along that coast
And I drew my face all sandy skin
To stay a little and endure
And the water came and mixed with so much stone
Slow as always my verse will remain
The trace of my heart.
The name of Alfonsina reached me
To show me the heart of Mar del Plata
She who in death exalted
All the love with which my guitar names her
It grows in memory and I can't help it
A time that will make me return.
