Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Me ha herido recatándose en las sombras, 
sellando con un beso su traición.
Los brazos me echó al cuello y por la espalda
partiome a sangre fría el corazón.

Y ella prosigue alegre su camino,
feliz, risueña, impávida. ¿Y por qué? 
Porque no brota sangre de la herida, 
porque el muerto está en pie.
