El Espejo
Valentín Elizalde
The Mirror
Surrounded by friends you were
The afternoon that passed in front of you
With sadness I heard them say
That your gaze is dropping
I know you have rejected my love
1000 men offer you their wealth
I only have a heart almost like a pasture
Because I am sunk in poverty
The clouds in the sky are crying
The birds are singing my sadness
Only you don't even remember me
Because I am sunk in my poverty
I almost don't remember who told me
Be careful not to humiliate yourself
Maybe they were words from my mother
Words of a love that couldn't deceive me
Pearl necklaces enlarged you
Money and love it seems
I hope the mirror disappoints you
After all, poverty doesn't age
The clouds in the sky are crying
The birds are singing my sadness
Only you don't even remember me
Because I am sunk in poverty
Only you don't even remember me
Because I am sunk in poverty
