Mercedes Sosa Zamba Para Olvidarte translation
No sé para que volviste,
I don't Why you come back
Si ya empezaba a olvidar.
if I was beginning to forget
No sé si ya lo sabrás,
I don't know if you know
Lloré cuando vos te fuiste.
I cried when you had to go
No se para que volviste,
I don't know why you come back
Que mal me hace recordar.
It makes me bad to remember
La tarde se ha puesto triste
The afternoon has turned sad
Y yo, prefiero callar.
And I'd rather shut up
Para qué vamos a hablar
Why do we have to talk
De cosas que ya no existen?
About things that doesn't exist anymore
No sé para que volviste,
I don't Why you come back
Ya ves que es mejor no hablar?
Can you see it's better not to talk?
Que pena me da
I feel really sad
Saber que, al final,
Knowing that in the end
De este amor ya no queda nada.
There's nothing left from this love
Sólo una pobre canción
It's just this poor song
Da vueltas por mi guitarra
Going around my guitar
Y hace rato que te extraña
And it has been a long time that it's been missing you
Mi zamba para olvidar.
My "zamba" to forget.
Mi zamba vivió conmigo
My "zamba" lived with me
Parte de mi soledad.
It was part of my loneliness
No sé si ya lo sabrás,
I don't know if you know
Mi vida se fue contigo.
My life going with you
Contigo, mi amor, contigo.
With you, my sweet, with you
Que mal me hace recordar.
It makes me bad to remember
Mis manos ya son de barro,
My hands are already mud
Tanto apretar al dolor.
For holding the pain for so long
Y ahora, que me falta el sol,
And now that I'm missing the sun
No sé que venis buscando.
I don't know what you came to look for
Llorando, mi amor, llorando.
Crying, honey, Crying
También olvidame vos.
Please forget me too
