How could he raise his eyes
And look me in the face
And betray me without me betraying him
And soil his conscience
With the dust of his madness
And get lost
Behind his embarrassing situations?!
Despite my doubt and the truth of my feelings
I decided to erase the illusion from my mind
And justify my beloved's excessive tricks
And be patient.
And create a thousand excuses!

How can he greet me?
And plant his dark hands in mine?
And say: I missed you?
You are the shining stars in my sky?
You are the happiness sleeping within me?
You are my life and the light of my eyes?
And there is no one like you?!

As for me.
I no longer ask?
I got used to the lies
And the betrayal.
And I learned how cling to the wood
Of my salvation before I drown,
And increase my faith after despair,
And move my mountains to a blue sea,
Whose brow and boat have not been stained,
And overcome the torment
With the intoxication of the drunkard,
Who now drinks wine
However, he pleases,
And they count it as aged wine!

What do I care? It doesn't matter.
Even if he betrays me a little,
And on the paths of recklessness,
He slaughters chastity.
The important thing is
That he remains with me,
More obedient than my own imagination,
And rests his head coquettishly
On my shoulder,
And I cover him with my shawl,
And he says:
There's no one like you in the world,
Oh, you who bring peace to my mind...
And despite my doubts
And the truth of my feelings,
I decided to erase the illusion
From my mind,
And make it fly away.
The wings of fate
And laugh with a big smile
And whisper to my cup:
His presence with me is enough!
