Madre Selva

(original)
Vieja pared del arrabal
Tu sombra fue mi compañera
De mi niñez sin esplendor
La amiga fue tu madreselva
Cuando temblando mi amor primero
Con esperanzas besaba mi alma
Yo junto a vos pura y feliz
Cantaba así mi primera confesión
Madreselvas en flor que me vieron nacer
Y en la vieja pared sorprendieron mi amor
Tu humilde caricia es como el cariño
Primero y querido que siento por él
Madreselvas en flor que trepándose van
Es su abrazo tenáz y dulzón como aquél
Si todos los años tus flores renacen
Hace que no muera mi primer amor
Pasaron los años y mil desengaños
Yo vengo a contarte mi vieja pared
Así aprendí que hay que fingir
Para vivir decentemente
Que amor y fe, mentiras son
Y del dolor se rie la gente
Hoy que la vida me ha castigado
Y me ha enseñado su credo amargo
Vieja pared con emoción
Me acerco a vos y te digo como ayer
Madreselvas en flor que me vieron nacer
Y en la vieja pared sorprendieron mi amor
Tu humilde caricia es como el cariño
Premero y querido que nunca olvidé
Madreselvas en flor que trepándose van
Es su abrazo tenáz y dulzón como aquél
Si todos los años tus flores renacen
¿por qué ya no vuelve mi primer amor?
(translation)
old slum wall
your shadow was my companion
Of my childhood without splendor
The friend was your honeysuckle
When trembling my love first
With hopes he kissed my soul
Me together with you pure and happy
I sang like this my first confession
Honeysuckle in bloom that saw me born
And on the old wall they surprised my love
Your humble caress is like affection
First and dearest I feel for him
Honeysuckle in bloom that climbs
It is his embrace of him tenacious and sweet like that
If every year your flowers are reborn
It keeps my first love from dying
Years passed and a thousand disappointments
I come to tell you about my old wall
That's how I learned that you have to pretend
to live decently
What love and faith, lies are
And people laugh at the pain
Today that life has punished me
And he has taught me his bitter creed
old wall with emotion
I approach you and tell you like yesterday
Honeysuckle in bloom that saw me born
And on the old wall they surprised my love
Your humble caress is like affection
First and dear that I never forgot
Honeysuckle in bloom that climbs
It is his tenacious and sweet hug like that one
If every year your flowers are reborn
Why doesn't my first love come back?
