Music by: Juan Carlos Cobian Lyrics by: Enrique Cadicamo (1942)
Rara,
Strange,
como encendida,
as if lit up,
te halle bebiendo,
I found you drinking,
linda y fatal;
beautiful and fatal
bebias,
You drank
y en el fragor del champan
and in the din of champagne
loca reias,
crazily you laughed,
por no llorar...
so as not to cry...
Pena
Pity
me dio encontrarte
I felt when finding you
pues al mirarte
cause when looking at you
yo vi brillar
I saw your eyes shining in electrical ardour
tus ojos
con un electrico ardor,
tus bellos ojos
your beautiful eyes
que tanto adore.
that I adored so much.
Esta noche, amiga mia,
Tonight, my friend,
el alcohol nos ha embriagado;
alcohol has made us drunk;
que me importa que se rian
what do I care if they laugh
y nos llamen los mareados.
and call us "tipsy."
Cada cual tiene sus penas
each has their sorrows
y nosotros las tenemos.
and we have ours.
Esta noche beberemos
Tonight we will drink
porque ya no volveremos
a vernos mas...
because we won't ever
see each other again...
Hoy vas a entrar en mi pasado,
Today, you will enter in my past,
en el pasado de mi vida.
in the past of my life.
Tres cosas lleva mi alma herida:
Three things bears my wounded soul:
Amor, Pesar, Dolor.
Love, Regret, Pain.
Hoy vas a entrar en mi pasado,
Today, you'll enter my past,
hoy nuevas sendas tomaremos.
today, new paths we're taking.
Que grande ha sido nuestro amor
How great our love has been
y, sin embargo, ay,
and, yet, ayyy,
mira lo que quedo!
look what's left!
