Chacarera Del Triste
Hernan Figueroa Reyes
Chacarera of the Sad One
Why do I want to live
With a broken heart
Why do I want life
After what you have done to me
I gave you my heart
You gave me yours
With deceit towards mine
Darling, you tore it apart
Oh! Why were you so cruel
When your frankness was expected
Why did you play with me
Darling, if I idolized you
I forgot about the world
Disappointments and bitterness
But what you did to me
Darling, lingers in my soul
I will spend my time singing
Very sad this chacarera
May it be that I find joy
At the moment of my death
Go on, guitar, go on
Continue crying like me
Companion until death
Continue consoling my soul
There is no remedy, I know
Why should I look for it
My soul is so broken
That it would be useless to achieve it
Go on, guitar, go on
Darling for what you did to me
Strumming all night long
The chacarera of a sad one
