"Recuerdo"

Mujer

De mi poema mejor

Mujer

Yo nunca tuve un amor

Perdón

Si eres mi gloria ideal

Perdón

Serás mi verso inicial.

Y la voz en el bar,

para siempre apagó.

El motivo sin par,

que al amor cantó,

Rubia y dulce Mimí,

que soñando en París

Llevara en sus pasos

la gloria que fue

De aquellos muchachos

del viejo café

"Reminiscence" [Literal Translation]

The Woman

From my finest poem

The Woman

I've never had a lover

Pardon me

If you are my glorious ideal

Pardon me

You will be my very first verse.

And that voice in the bar,

forever silenced

That unmatched reason,

that to love he sang.

Blonde sweet Mimi,

that dreaming of Paris

I'll follow in her footsteps

the beauty that she was

amongst those kids

in that old cafe
