It'll be hard to understand
That despite my being here today
I'm of the people and won't ever be able to forget that
You all should believe me; my frills are but a disguise
A bourgeois game, nothing more
Ceremonial norms
I had to accept that I had to change
And stop living in grey
Always behind the windowpane without a place under the sun
I sought to be free, but I'll never stop dreaming
And I'll only have access to the faith that you all choose to share
Don't cry for me Argentina
My soul is with you
My entire life I dedicate to you
But don't go far, I need you
I never sought powers
Lies were told about me
My place is yours, for you all I fought
I just want to feel you near, be able to try
Opening my window and knowing
That you'll never forget me
Don't cry for me Argentina...
Don't cry for me Argentina
My soul is with you
My entire life I dedicate to you
But don't go far, I need you
What more can I say
To convince you of my truth
If you still want to doubt it, look into my eyes, see
How they cry with love
Don't cry for me Argentina...
