Habanera del primer amor [English translation]

At the year we met

doing sand molds

very soon we discovered:

you were a boy and I was a girl

On the second summer,

we scaped from the grandma

following a tick,

and we discovered that the world

wasn't only our home

Time of sun,

little patent-leather shoes

Time of light,

me in pink and you of blue

Time of sun,

little starch hoods

Time of light,

me in pink and you of blue

In a summer afternoon,

after many years,

we discovered the sigh

with a strange feeling

Stones and trees of the river

are still carved

by our children hands,

drawn hearts

with your name and mine,

two arrow-crossed hearts,

wounded of the first love

Rude and severe

time made his job

good things never last;

we discovered suddenly

with feeling and pain;

our love came undone

like the sand molds
