El crucifijo de piedra [English translation]
When I was just loving her,
when I was feeling she was all mine,
I watched her leave.
She swore to me she would come back,
but it was all just a lie
because her soul was no longer mine.
In the silence of the night
we looked at each other face to face
without words.
She, suddenly, told me
to forget her affection,
that she didn't want to pretend.
It was underneath the crucifix
of a church tower,
when the moon shone upon us.
I held her tight in my arms
with the intention of retaining her
but I was hindered by my pride.
Already alone, by the church
and crying, before the Christ
I went to implore.
On looking at my sadness,
the stone crucifix
began to cry too.
