Paloma Quiero Contarte
Victor Jara
Paloma I Want to Tell You
Paloma I want to tell you
that I am alone,
that I love you.
That life is ending for me
because I have you so far away,
little dove I want to see you.
I cry with every memory
even though I hold back.
I cry with anger outward
but very deeply inside,
little dove I want to see you.
Like a walnut tree trunk
like the stone of the hill
a man can be a man
when he walks straight,
little dove I want to see you.
How to remove from the soul
what left me black,
always turned outward
to take care of oneself inside,
little dove I want to see you.
