Tu ausencia
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Es un tormento amar como te amo!
Desde que estás ausente
mi pobre corazón es una herida
que está sangrando siempre.

Pero no te más prolongar tu ausencia
por este corazón cuando regreses 
lo hallarás sin sangre
pero lleno de amor.

Your absence
Language: English  after the Spanish (Español) 
It is torment to love as I love you!
Because you are gone
my poor heart is a wound
which is always bleeding.

But do not prolong your absence any longer,
for when you return you will find
this heart without blood,
but full of love.
