Esta tristeza mía
Este dolor tan grande
Lo llevo más profundo
Pues me ha dejado
Solo en el mundo

This sadness I feel
This great pain
I carry it deeply
For it has left me
All alone in the world

Ya
Ni llorar es bueno
Cuando no hay esperanza

Now
Even crying doesn’t helpful
When there is no hope

Ya
Ni el vino mitiga
Las penas amargas
Que a mí me matan

Now,
Not even wine eases
The bitter pains
That are killing me

Yo no sé
Qué será de mi suerte
Que de mí no se acuerda ni Dios

I don’t know
What will become of my fate
Since even God forgets about me

¡Ay!
Pobres de mis ojos
Cuánto han llorado
Este dolor

Oh! 
Poor eyes of mine
How much they’ve cried
From this pain

Yo no sé
Qué será de mi suerte
Que de mí no se acuerda ni Dios

I don’t know
What will become of my fate
Since even God forgets about me

¡Ay!
Pobres de mis ojos
Cuánto han llorado
Este dolor

Oh! 
Poor eyes of mine
How much they’ve cried
From this pain
