La Lopez Pereyra

The Lopez Pereyra
I would like to forget you, it's impossible, my dear, my dear,
your image haunts me, yours is my life and my love too.
And when I am pensive and alone
I deliriously think about the falsehood with which your love has repaid mine,
I deliriously think about the falsehood with which your love has repaid mine.
If I could have you by my side all day,
I would tell you about my hidden loves, my dove.
But my longing is useless, never, never...
I live only to love you, silently and sadly cry, cry,
I live only to love you, silently and sadly cry, cry.
They have told me that you don't love me, but that's not a reason,
you deprive me of your glances, my soul, without them I cannot live.
I will hide in a jungle just to cry,
maybe in my exile I can forget your dark eyes,
maybe in my exile I can forget your dark eyes.
On a serene night I looked up at the blue sky, I looked,
contemplating the stars, I asked the most beautiful one
if it was she who illuminated my love, my love,
to ask the merciful God for resignation for her,
to ask the merciful God for resignation for her.
