Veintiuno Son Los Dolores
Violeta Parra
Twenty-One Are The Pains
Once you besieged me
2 oaths you made me
3 big tears you shed
4 moans you drew
5 minutes you hesitated
6 more because I didn't see you
7 pieces of me
8 reasons afflict me
9 lies distance me
10 that I felt in your mouth
11 chains tie me
12 they want to free me
13 they may stop me
14 that tear me apart
15 wicked ones that soil
My 16 hopes
And 17 changes
18 sorrows they give me
19 will mature
20 more than she reaches me
21 are the pains
For 22 thoughts
They give me 23 torments
For 24 fears
25 hummingbirds
Tell me 26 times
That 27 they offer me
28 of those stamens
Are 29 cramps
The 30 that afflict me
31 days I loved you
32 hours I dreamed
33 minutes I gave
Or 34 maybe
35 I heard
36 next to your chest
37 it was to my bed
38 of passion
39 to the heart
40 bitter heartbreak
