Lindo Clavelito
Rodolfo Aicardi
Beautiful Little Carnation
I have a beautiful little carnation
the most beautiful thing in life
and due to lack of dew
the carnation is dying
the waters have gone away
so my carnation won't live
goodbye beautiful little carnation
how you are saying goodbye
forgive me my little carnation
I regret your sadness
the waters have gone away
to make you leave
I would like to water you
with the blood from my veins
to see if that way
your sad heart wakes up
My beautiful little carnation has left me without hope
because the plant where it was blooming dried up
That was my only charm
and who consoled me
today nothing consoles me
I have lost my carnation
