Flor Pálida (Pale Flower)
Hallé una flor
Un día en el camino
Que apareció marchita y deshojada
Ya casi pálida, ahogada en un suspiro
I found a flower
One day on the road
That appeared withered and leafless
Almost pale, drowned in a sigh

Ahora Quien (Now Who)
¿A quién van a engañar ahora tus brazos?
¿A quién van a mentirle ahora tus labios?

Y luego en el silencio

Who will your lips lie to now?
Who will you tell I love you now?
And then in silence
