[English]

I have had in my life

Many loves

I have had fortune

And I have had pleasures

Almost a thousand hearts

Have adored me

But today not one

Is by my side

The woman, always good

Loved me

And I, as always

Faked love for them

"Who do you think you are?"

She asked me

"That you deceive and lie

Like no one else"

My soul cries out

Cries out with weeping

Why, if I had love?

Why, if I was the best?

Today I was alone

Alone, alone

I had nothing

Nothing, nothing

Only today do I understand

That everything comes with a price

Only today do I understand

Because my heart

Is dying

My soul cries out

Cries out with weeping

Why, if I had love?

Why, if I was the best?

Today I was alone (alone)

Alone, alone

I had nothing

Nothing, nothing

Only today do I understand

That everything comes with a price

Only today do I understand

Because my heart

Is dying

Of loneliness, of loneliness

Is dying

...

[Spanish]

He tenido en mi vida

Muchos amores

He tenido fortuna

Y he tenido placeres

Casi mil corazones

Me han adorado

Pero hoy ninguna

Está a mi lado

La mujer, siempre buena

A mí me quería

Y yo, como siempre

Amor les fingía

"¿Quién te crees que eres?"

A mí me preguntó

"Qué engañas y mientes

Como ninguno"

Mi alma reclama

Reclama con llanto

¿Por qué?, si tenía amor

¿Por qué?, si yo era el mejor

Hoy estaba solo

Solo, solo

No tenía nada

Nada, nada

Hasta hoy comprendo

Que todo se paga

Hasta hoy comprendo

Porque mi corazón

Está muriendo

Mi alma reclama

Reclama con llanto

¿Por qué?, si tenía amor

¿Por qué?, si yo era el mejor

Hoy estaba solo (solo)

Solo, solo

No tenía nada

Nada, nada

Hasta hoy comprendo

Que todo se paga

Hasta hoy comprendo

Porque mi corazón

Está muriendo

De soledad, de soledad

Está muriendo
