Solo Dios Sabe Hasta Cuándo
Los Manseros Santiagueños
Only God Knows How Long
Let the winds take
These verses that I sing to you
Maybe this way you'll have mercy
On this being that loves you so much
Come closer in flight
Messenger dove
And whisper in your ear
That my love is not for just anyone
On a sheet of paper
I have tried to explain to you
But all the letters
Have been erased with my tears
Give me your love, my dear
Your lover asks for it
Who will always wait for you
Only God knows how long
Sometimes I wonder
If this wait is not in vain
If another more fortunate
Is not enjoying you
Maybe if your loves
Are achieved through tears
I would send you a handkerchief
Soaked with my tears
What a blissful death
To suffocate with your kisses
To die with your sighs
To hang myself with your hair
Give me your love, my dear
Your lover asks for it
Who will always wait for you
Only God knows how long
