Marchita el alma
Language: Spanish (Español)
Marchita el alma, Triste el pensamiento, Mustia la faz, Y herido el corazón, Atravesando la existencia misera Sin esperanza de alcanzar su amor. Marchita el amor. Yo quise hablarle Y desir le mucho mucho, Pero al intentarlo Mi labio enmudecio; Nada le dije porque nada pude, Pues era de otro ya su corazón.
