Triste me voy a los campos

Language: Spanish (Español)

Our translations: ENG

Triste me voy a los campos; por momentos y por horas,
a ver si encuentro la prenda que mi corazón adora.
 
Yo le pregunto a los astros que me digan dónde habita...
Y me responden llorando: lejos está de tu vista
 
Si sientes doblar campanas no preguntes quién murió;
que estando ausente de tí...
Quién ha de ser, si no yo

With sadness I go to the fields

Language: English after the Spanish (Español)

With sadness I go to the fields
to see if I can find the beloved one that my heart adores
 
I ask the stars if they know where she lives
And they answer in weeping tears: far away from your sight.
 
If you hear bells ringing, don't ask who has died;
because being away from you...
Who could that be,  but me.
