| Un lunes se marchó, quizá para nunca volver
| One Monday he left, perhaps never to return
|
| Pero dejó su corazón a su amor más fiel
| But she left her heart from her to her truest love
|
| No llamó, durante meses ni escribió
| She didn't call, for months or write
|
| La mujer comprendió su soldado cayó

|
| Y entre llantos suplicaba a su Señor:
| And she between tears she begged her Lord for her:
|
| «No le lleves, por favor»
| "Don't take him, please"
|
| Pero a sus plegarias nadie contestó
| But no one answered his prayers
|
| Y la vida se quitó
| And life took away
|
| Lágrimas de dolor sobre un rostro sin voz
| Tears of pain on a voiceless face
|
| La batalla apagó su corazón
| The battle quenched his heart
|
| Esa estúpida guerra cruel que te arranca la piel
| That stupid cruel war that rips your skin off
|
| Su veneno atacó, supo vencer
| Her poison from him attacked, she knew how to win
|
| Nadie le recibió el triste día que volvió
| Nobody received him the sad day he returned
|
| A su esposa llamó, el silencio habló
| He called his wife, the silence spoke
|
| «Cariño, ¿dónde estás? | "Honey, where are you? |
| Ya no me iré nunca jamás»
| I will never leave anymore»
|
| Sobre un viejo sillón la encontró sin color
| On an old armchair she found it colorless
|
| Y entre llantos maldecía a su Señor:
| And between tears she cursed her Lord of her:
|
| «¿Por qué ella y no yo?»
| "Why her and not me?"
|
| Y besándola en las manos la nombró
| And kissing her in her hands, he named her
|
| Antes de decir adiós
| before saying goodbye
|
| Lágrimas de dolor sobre un rostro sin voz
| Tears of pain on a voiceless face
|
| La batalla apagó su corazón
| The battle quenched his heart
|
| Esa estúpida guerra cruel que te arranca la piel
| That stupid cruel war that rips your skin off
|
| Su veneno atacó, supo vencer
| His poison attacked him, he knew how to win
