| Cuando se apartan, dos corazones
| When they part, two hearts
|
| Cuando se dice adiós, para olvidar
| When you say goodbye, to forget
|
| Dice la ausencia, te llevo conmigo, para que olvides
| Says the absence, I'll take you with me, so that you forget
|
| Para que, no sufras más
| So that you don't suffer anymore
|
| Y lejos, pero muy lejos, vuela, el pensamiento
| And far, but very far, flies, the thought
|
| Y tristes, como un lamento, son los suspiros, del corazón
| And sad, like a lament, are the sighs, from the heart
|
| Ausencia, tu que pensabas poner, alivio, a mi penar
| Absence, what were you thinking of putting, relief, to my sorrow
|
| Ausencia, me has engañado, por lo mucho que he llorado
| Absence, you have deceived me, for how much I have cried
|
| No te puedo olvidar
| I can not forget you
|
| Ausencia, tu que pensabas poner, alivio, a mi penar

|
| Ausencia, me has engañado, por lo mucho que he llorado
| Absence, you have deceived me, for how much I have cried
|
