La Cieguita

(original)
A pesar del mucho tiempo
Desde entonces transcurrido
Aún mi pecho conmovido
Se recuerda con dolor
De aquel día que, en paseo
Vino a un banco una cieguita
Y a su lado una viejita
Que era su guía y su amor
Y observé que la chiquita
De ojos grandes y vacíos
Escuchaba el griterío
De otras nenas al saltar
Y la oí que amargamente
En un son que era de queja
Preguntábale a la vieja:
¿Por qué yo no he de jugar?
Y a punto fijo no sé
Si el dolor que sentí
Fue escuchando la voz de la nena
O fue que cuando miré
A su vieja advertí
Que lloraba en silencio su pena
¡Ay, cieguita!
Dije yo con gran pesar
Ven conmigo, pobrecita
Le di un beso y la cieguita
Tuvo ya con quien jugar
Y fue así que diariamente
Al llegar con su viejita
Me buscaba la cieguita
Con tantísimo interés
¡Qué feliz era la pobre
Cuando junto a mi llegaba
Y con sus mimos lograba
Que jugásemos los tres…
Pero un día, bien me acuerdo
No fue más que la viejita
Que me dijo: La cieguita
Está a punto de expirar…
Fuí corriendo hasta su cuna
La cieguita se moría
Y al morirse me decía:
¿Con quén vas ahora a jugar?
Y a punto fijo no sé
Si el dolor que sentí
Fue escuchando el adiós de la nena
O fue que cuando miré
A su vieja advertí
Que lloraba en silencio su pena
¿Ay, cieguita!
Yo no te podré olvidar;
Pues me acuerdo de mi hijita
Que también era cieguita
Y no podía jugar…
(translation)
despite the long time
Since then elapsed
Still my chest moved
It is remembered with pain
From that day when, on a walk
A blind woman came to a bank
And next to her an old lady
That was her guide her and her love
And I observed that the little girl
With big empty eyes
I heard the screaming
Of other girls when jumping
And I heard her bitterly
In a son that was a complaint
I asked the old woman:
Why shouldn't I play?
And at a fixed point I don't know
If the pain that I felt
He was listening to the girl's voice
Or was it that when I looked
I warned his old woman
That she silently cried her sorrow
Oh, blind girl!
I said with great regret
Come with me, poor thing
I gave her a kiss and the blind girl
She already had someone to play with
And it was so daily
When he arrived with his old lady
the blind woman was looking for me
with so much interest
How happy was the poor
When she next to me she arrived
And she with her pampering managed
Let the three of us play...
But one day, I well remember
She was nothing more than the old lady
That she told me: The blind girl
She is about to expire...
I ran to his crib
the blind woman was dying
And when she died she told me:
Who are you going to play with now?
And at a fixed point I don't know
If the pain that I felt
He was listening to the girl's goodbye
Or was it that when I looked
I warned his old woman
That she silently cried her sorrow
Oh, blind girl!
I will not be able to forget you;
Well, I remember my little daughter
That she was also blind
And she couldn't play...
