by Miguel Andrés Camino (1877 - 1944)

La sombra (Yaraví)
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Cuando triste el corazón
Mi llanto sangra en silencio
Es en vano que otros labios
Busquen darme algún consuelo
Ha de brotar de mi quena
El dolor por su desprecio

¡Ay de mí! ¡Ah!
Así viviré, ¡ay de mí!
Adorando en mis desvelos
La sombra de aquel cariño
Triste y hondo de mis sueños

Y mientras dure la vida
En mi corazón sediento
Viviré por esa sombra
Solo, mudo, sordo y ciego
