Caramba
O. Galíndez
Caramba mi amor, caramba
Caramba*, my love, caramba,
lo bello que hubiera sido
how beautiful it would have been
si tanto como te quise,
if you had loved me
así me hubieras querido.
as much as I loved you.
Caramba mi amor, caramba
Caramba, my love, caramba,
pasar éste invierno triste,
To spend this sad winter
mirando caer la lluvia
watching the falling rain,
que tantas cosas me dice.
which tells me so many things.
Caramba mi amor, caramba
Caramba, my love, caramba,
las cosas que nos perdimos,
the things we lost,
los chismes que solo escucho,
the gossiping that I listen to alone
entre las piedras y el rio.
between the stones and the river.
Caramba mi amor, caramba
Caramba, my love, caramba,
el viento entre las espigas,
the wind between the leaves,
aroma de caña fresca
the smell of fresh cane,
y amargos de mandarina.
and the bitterness of the mandarins.
Caramba mi amor, caramba.
Caramba, my love, caramba,
Amor. Ah.
Love. Ah!
