Carlos Gardel "Soledad" lyrics

Translation to:en

Soledad

Yo no quiero que nadie a mí me digaque de tu dulce vida vos ya me has arrancado.Mi corazón una mentira pidepara esperar tu imposible llamado.Yo no quiero que nadie se imaginecómo es de amarga y honda mi eterna soledad,pasa las noche el minuto muelela pesadilla de su lento tic-tac.

En la doliente sombra de mi cuarto, al esperarsus pasos que quizás no volverán,a veces me parece que ellos detienen su andarsin atreverse luego a entrar.Pero no hay nadie y ella no viene,es un fantasma que crea mi ilusión.Y que al desvanecerse va dejando su visión,cenizas en mi corazón.

En la plateada esfera del reloj,las horas que agonizan se niegan a pasar.Hay un desfile de extrañas figurasque me contemplan con burlón mirar.Es una caravana interminableque se hunde en el olvido con su mueca espectral,se va con ella tu boca que era mía,sólo me queda la angustia de mi mal.

En la doliente sombra de mi cuarto, al esperarsus pasos que quizás no volverán,a veces me parece que ellos detienen su andarsin atreverse luego a entrar.Pero no hay nadie y ella no viene,es un fantasma que crea mi ilusión.Y que al desvanecerse va dejando su visión,cenizas en mi corazón.

Loneliness

I don't want anybody to tell methat you have uprooted me from your sweet life.My heart is asking for a lieso that I can wait for your imposible call.I don't want anybody to figure outhow bitter and profound my eternal lonliness is,the night passes, the minutes grindthe nightmare of their slow tic-tac.

In the afflicted shadows of my bedroom, while waitingfor her steps that, perhaps, won't come back,some times, seems to me, that they stop their walkingwithout daring, after, to come in.But nobody is there, and she doesn't come,it is a ghost that my illusion creates,and that, as it fades, its vision leavesashes in my heart.

In the silvery dial of the clockthe hours that are dying, refuse to pass.There is a parade of strange figuresthat look at me with mockingly glances.It is an endless caravanthat sink into oblivion with its spectral grimace.With it goes your mouth, that was mine,I only have left the anguish of my grief.

In the afflicted shadows of my bedroom, while waitingfor her steps that, perhaps, won't come back,some times, seems to me, that they stop their walkingwithout daring, after, to come in.But nobody is there, and she doesn't come,it is a ghost that my illusion creates,and that, as it fades, its vision leavesashes in my heart.
