Lyrics of Zamba por vos - Soledad Bravo

Zamba por vos (original)

Yo no canto por vos;
Te canta la zamba
Y dice al cantar:
No te puedo olvidar, no te puedo olvidar
Yo no canto por vos;
Te canta la zamba
Y cantando así
Canta para mí, canta para mí
ESTRIBILLO
Zambita cantá:
No la esperes más
Tenés que saber que si no volvió
Es porque ya te olvidó
Perfumá esa flor
Que se marchitó, que se marchitó
Yo tuve un amor
Lo dejé esperando
Y, cuando volví
No lo conocí, no lo conocí
Dijo que tal vez
Me estuviera amando
Me miró y se fue:
Sin decir por qué;
sin decir por qué

(translation)

I do not sing for you;
samba sings to you
And he says when singing:
I can't forget you, I can't forget you
I do not sing for you;
samba sings to you
and singing like this
Sing for me, sing for me
CHORUS
Zambita sings:
Don't wait for her anymore
You have to know that if she didn't come back
It's because she already forgot you
perfume that flower
That she withered, that she withered
I had a love
I kept him waiting
And when I came back
I didn't know him, I didn't know him
She said maybe
was loving me
She looked at me and left:
Without saying why;
without saying why
