La equivocación [English translation]

"Oh, how I love you"

she said at ear and kissed me.

"No, never leave me, no"

and dampened my should with her tears,

when I told her goodbye.

It's better for the both of us

to each of us go their own way,

because I've found a new love,

what a mistake, what a terrible mistake.

How I miss her today,

my tears have flowed to the floor.

No, I haven't forgotten her, no

and she has forgotten me

with good reason.

It was I who said goodbye to her,

It's better for the both of us

to each of us go their own way,

because I've found a new love,

what a mistake, what a terrible mistake.
