Lyrics of De Cal Y De Arena - Los Nocheros

De Cal Y De Arena (original)

Llora sobre el rio seco
Mi cancion desconsolada
A orillitas del silencio
Porque no me has dicho nada
Tanta luna prometida
Me ha tapado todo el cielo
De tu brasita encendida
No he sabido hacerme fuego
Despojado como el arbol
DE LA FLOR why SU ENRAMADA
El invierno me ha alcanzado
De no verte enamorada
Estribillo
Lo que tengo te lo debo
Lo que soy me lo he ganado
La de arena por amarte
La de cal, por desconfiado
Cuando la intencion no alcanza
Hierro firme, la pereza
Monedita en la balanza
Pierde por su ligereza
Como espejo de la noche
En tus ojos me he mirado
Ya no tengo en que mirarme
Pero sigo enamorado
Tarde para los lamentos
Para retenerte, tarde
Pa’morirme muy temprano
Tempranito pa’olvidarte

(translation)

Cry over the dry river
my heartbroken song
On the shores of silence
because you haven't told me anything
so many promised moon
She has covered all the sky
of your burning brass
I have not known how to make myself fire
Stripped like the tree
OF THE FLOWER AND ITS ENRAMADA
winter has caught up with me
of not seeing you in love
Chorus
What I have I owe you
What I am I have earned
The one of sand for loving you
The one with lime, for being distrustful
When the intention is not enough
Steadfast iron, sloth
Coin on the scale
Loses by its lightness
Like a mirror of the night
In your eyes I have looked
I no longer have to look at myself
but i'm still in love
late for regrets
To hold you late
To die very early
Early to forget you
