Bajo Un Cielo De Estrella

A long time after leaving I return to the neighborhood that I left behind, Anxious to see its streets, My old friends, and the old café. On this dark and tranquil night The very air seems to say: "Don't forget I was always yours And I keep hoping you'll come back to me." Tonight I become once again That dreamy-eyed boy Who knew how to love you and, in his verses, Showed you his sorrows... There's a voice that whispers in my ear: "I know you've come back now For her... for her!" How lovely and yet how sad Is the solitude of the arrabal With its little houses And the trees that paint shadows. When everything, everything calls out her name, I feel such an overwhelming urge to cry!
