Translation of the song lyrics Pobre Corazón - Compay Segundo

Pobre Corazón (original)

Mi pobre corazón me dijo un día
que en este mundo había
un valle de dolor
y yo le contesté:
No me amargues la vida
tal parece mentira
que eso mismo soñé.
Corazón yo que tanto he sufrido
por la dicha que nunca encontré
corazón si es que vago perdido
dale fuerzas que aliente a mi fe.
Corazón ten valor no te aflijas*
yo las penas por siempre olvidé
no me hables de cosas tan tristes
corazón nunca pierdas la fe.
No me hables de cosas tan tristes
corazón nunca pierdas la fe.
Donde vas, preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares.
Donde vas, preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares
Pero donde vas, preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares.
Donde vas preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares.
Donde vas preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares.
Donde vas preciosa y linda cubana
traeme la, sonrisa de los palmares.

(translation)

My poor heart told me one day
that in this world there was
a valley of pain
and I replied:
Don't make my life bitter
it seems like a lie
That's what I dreamed of.
Heart I who have suffered so much
for the bliss i never found
heart if it is that I wander lost
Give him strength to encourage my faith.
Heart have courage do not grieve *
I forgot the sorrows forever
don't talk to me about such sad things
heart never lose faith.
Don't talk to me about such sad things
heart never lose faith.
Where are you going, beautiful and pretty Cuban
Bring me the smile of the palm trees.
Where are you going, beautiful and pretty Cuban
bring me the smile of los palmares
But where are you going, precious and pretty Cuban
Bring me the smile of the palm trees.
Where are you going beautiful and cute Cuban
Bring me the smile of the palm trees.
Where are you going beautiful and cute Cuban
Bring me the smile of the palm trees.
Where are you going beautiful and cute Cuban
Bring me the smile of the palm trees.
