Translation of the song lyrics Una Sombra - ANTONIO AGUILAR

Una Sombra (original)

A la orilla de una playa
Una sombra negra vi
Yo me retiraba de ella
Y ella se acercaba a mí
Caballero
Caballero
¿Qué anda haciendo por aquí?
Ando en busca de mi esposa
Que hace tiempo la perdí
Pues su esposa
Ya está muerta
Eso mismo yo lo vi
Cuatro candeleros blancos
La alumbraron ella ahí
Cásate, esposo querido
Cásate, no andes así
La primera hija que tengas
Le pondrás igual que a mí
De dos hijos que quedaron
Sácalos a divertir
Háblales cuando los nombres
Pa' que te acuerdes de mí
Se secó la flor de mayo
Se secó la flor de abril
Son recuerdos de mi esposa
Que dejó antes de morir

Una Sombra (translation)

At the edge of a beach
I saw a black shadow
I withdrew from her
And she was coming to me
Gentleman
Gentleman
What are you doing here?
I'm looking for my wife
I lost her a long time ago
well his wife
she is already dead
I saw the same thing
Four white candlesticks
They lit her there
Marry, dear husband
Get married, don't walk like that
The first daughter you have
you will put him the same as me
Of two children who remained
take them out to have fun
Talk to them when the names
So that you remember me
The flower of May dried up
April flower withered
They are memories of my wife
She that she left before she died
