If I had to choose between your life and mine,
I'd choose you, my love, 'cause you are my life.
If I had to choose, girl, between your life and mine,
I'd choose you, my love, 'cause you are my life.

I thought that by separating quickly, I'd forget her,
But the truth is, I tell you, I still love her,
Every minute that passes, I miss her company...

And today she stole the essence that colors my melody,
Fly and fly, my coat, go out for a stroll.
And today she stole the essence that colors my melody,
Fly and fly, my coat, go out for a stroll.

Who knows, you might run into her on your journeys,
'Cause I still hope that she'll come back one day,
So she can love me again, like she used to love me,
Lying in my hammock, I’d sing to her again.
And I remember clearly all that I felt:
Pain, sadness, heartbreak, and a deep melancholy,
That image comes back to me from when she said goodbye,
My tears called her, but she didn’t reply,
Winter ended for me, and the drought began,
Go and tell her, my coat, that I still love her...

How I wish you... would come back to my side,
Come back, my darling, 'cause this cold is killing me.
How I wish you, my love, would come back to my side,
Come back, my darling, 'cause this cold is killing me.

Longing for your return, that's what I crave the most,
Don't be sad, my heart... never give up,
Let this love unfold... like winter to the rivers.

I still keep asking why you haven't come back,
Go and fly, my coat, roam the neighborhoods.
I still keep asking why you haven't come back,
Go and fly, my coat, roam the neighborhoods.

'Cause I have hope that this love hasn't been lost,
If you happen to find her, let me know, my friend,
But hurry up, coat, 'cause dawn is almost here,
And your wings will get soaked with the morning dew,
And it's that rooster's crow that puts me in distress,
Imagine, darling, that even the dog hasn't barked,
Give me back my joy and my heart's beats,
Come back soon, my love, 'cause I’m waiting for you here...
