Original text with translation
Mercedes Sosa
Para que quiero vivir
Con el corazon desecho
Para que quiero la vida
Despues de lo que me has hecho
Yo te di mi corazon
Vos el tuyo me entregaste
Pero luego con engaño
Prienda lo despedazaste
Porque fuiste tan cruel
Si tu franqueza esperaba
Porque jugaste conmigo
Prienda si te idolatraba
Segui guitarra segui
Segui como yo llorando
Compañera hasta la muerte
Segui mi alma consolando
Siempre del mundo olvide
Desengaños y amarguras
Pero lo que vos me hicistes
Prienda en mi alma perdura
No hay remedio ya lo se
Para que voy a llorarlo
Tan desecha tengo el alma
Que inutil seria buscarlo
Cantando me pasare
Muy triste esta chacarera
Puede ser que ya me alegre
Y en el instante me muera
Segui guitarra segui
Segui como yo llorando
Compañera hasta la muerte
Segui mi alma consolando
What do I want to live for?
with a broken heart
Why do I want life?
After what you've done to me
I gave you my heart
You gave me yours
But then with deceit
Prien you tore it apart
why were you so cruel
If your frankness waited
why did you play with me
Prienda if I idolized you
follow guitar follow
I kept crying like me
companion until death
I kept comforting my soul
always forget the world
disappointments and bitterness
But what you did to me
Prienda in my soul endures
There is no remedy, I already know
why should i cry
So undone I have the soul
How useless it would be to look for it
I will spend singing
This chacarera is very sad
It may be that I'm happy
And the moment I die
follow guitar follow
I kept crying like me
companion until death
I kept comforting my soul
