Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Jardín Prohibido by Sergio Dalma from Spanish to English.

Esta tarde vengo triste y tengo que decirte

This afternoon I come sad and I have to tell you

Que tu mejor amiga ha estado entre mis brazos

That your best friend has been in my arms

Sus ojos me llamaban pidiendo mis caricias

Her eyes were calling me asking for my caresses

Su cuerpo me rogaba que le diera vida

Her body was begging me to give her life

Comí del fruto prohibido dejando el vestido

I ate from the forbidden fruit leaving the dress

Colgado de nuestra inconsciencia

Hung from our unconsciousness

Mi cuerpo fué gozo durante un minuto

My body was joy for a minute

Mi mente lloraba tu ausencia

My mind was crying your absence

No lo volveré a hacer más

I won't do it again

No lo volveré a hacer más

I won't do it again

Pues mi alma volaba a tu lado y mis ojos

Because my soul was flying by your side and my eyes

Decían cansados que eras tú, que eras tú

Tiredly said it was you, it was you

Que siempre serás tú

That you will always be you

Lo siento mucho la vida es así

I'm very sorry, life is like that

No la he inventado yo

I didn't invent it

Si el placer me ha mirado a los ojos

If pleasure looked me in the eyes

Y cogido por mano yo me he dejado llevar por mi cuerpo

And took me by the hand, I let myself be carried away by my body

Y me he comportado como un ser humano

And I behaved like a human being

Lo siento mucho la vida es así

I'm very sorry, life is like that

No la he inventado yo

I didn't invent it

Sus besos no me permitieron repetir tu nombre, y el suyo sí

Her kisses didn't allow me to repeat your name, but hers did

Por eso cuando la abrazaba me acordé de ti

That's why when I hugged her, I remembered you

Comí del fruto prohibido

I ate from the forbidden fruit

Dejando el vestido colgado de nuestra inconsciencia

Leaving the dress hung from our unconsciousness

Mi cuerpo fué gozo durante un minuto

My body was joy for a minute

Mi mente lloraba tu ausencia

My mind was crying your absence

No lo volveré a hacer más

I won't do it again

No lo volveré a hacer más

I won't do it again

Pues mi alma volaba a tu lado y mis ojos

Because my soul was flying by your side and my eyes

Decían cansados que eras tú, que eras tú

Tiredly said it was you, it was you

Que siempre serás tú

That you will always be you

Lo siento mucho la vida es así

I'm very sorry, life is like that

No la he inventado yo

I didn't invent it

Si el placer me ha mirado a los ojos

If pleasure looked me in the eyes

Y cogido por mano yo me he dejado llevar por mi cuerpo

And took me by the hand, I let myself be carried away by my body

Y me he comportado como un ser humano

And I behaved like a human being

Lo siento mucho la vida es así

I'm very sorry, life is like that

No la he inventado yo

I didn't invent it
