Translation of the song lyrics Rio Rebelde - Martin Daniel, Julio Iglesias

Rio Rebelde (original)

Tiré tu pañuelo al río
Para mirarlo cómo se hundía
Era el último recuerdo
De tu cariño que yo tenía
Se fue yendo despacito…
Como tu amor
Pero el río un día
A la playa al fin
Me lo volverá
Pero yo sé bien
Que nunca jamás
Podré ser feliz
Sin tus alegrías
Te recordaré
En mi soledad
En el río aquél
Que quedó sin luz
Cuando comprendí
Que ya no eras mío

(translation)

I threw your handkerchief into the river
To watch as she sank
It was the last memory
Of your love that I had
She walked away slowly...
As your love
But the river one day
To the beach at last
will return it to me
but i know well
that never ever
I can be happy
without your joys
I will remember you
In my loneliness
In the river that
that was left without light
when i understood
that you were no longer mine
