Español

Dichas gratas de un amor
Tan puro sin melancolías,
Que se ha muerto en mi vida
paria cual rosa de un día.

Dichas que viví y no volverán,
Dichas gratas que mis ojos
En silencio llorarán.

Dicha mía que vivió un instante
Para no olvidarla,
Y en las notas en este vals triste
vengo a recordarla.

Dichas de mi ayer
que murió y se fue,
Dichas gratas que a vivir de nuevo yo no volveré.

(Instrumental)

English 

Pleasant happiness of a love
So pure without melancholy
That has died in my outcasted life
like a rose of one day.

Joy that I had and that won't come back,
Pleasant happiness that my eyes
in silence will cry for.

My joy that lived for an instant
not to forget her,
And in the notes of this sad vals
I come to remember her.

Happiness from my past
that died and it's gone,
Pleasant joy that I will not have again.

(Instrumental)
