Letra del Vals Dos que se aman

Adiós para siempre, mitad de mi vida,
un alma tan solo teníamos los dos.
Mas hoy es preciso que a esa alma divida
la amarga palabra del último adiós.

¿Por qué nos separan? ¿No saben acaso
que pasa la vida cual pasa la flor?
Cruzamos el mundo como aves de paso…
Mañana, la tumba; ¿por qué hoy, el dolor?

¿La dicha secreta de dos que se adoran
enoja los cielos, y es fuerza sufrir?
¿Tan solo son gratas las almas que lloran
al torvo destino?… ¿La ley es morir?

¿Tan solo son gratas las almas que lloran
al torvo destino?… ¿La ley es morir?

¿Quién es el destino?… Te arroja a mis brazos.
En mi alma te imprime, te infunde en mi ser,
y, bárbaro, luego me arranca a pedazos
el alma y la vida contigo… ¿Por qué?

Adiós… es preciso. No llores… y parte.
La dicha de vernos nos quitan nomás;
pero un solo instante dejar de adorarte,
hacer que te olvide. ¿Lo pueden? ¡Jamás!

Con lazos eternos nos hemos unido.
En vano el destino nos hiere a los dos…
¡Las almas que se aman no tienen olvido,
No tienen ausencia, no tienen adiós!

¡Las almas que se aman no tienen olvido,
No tienen ausencia, no tienen adiós!

English lyrics of the Vals "Dos que se aman"

Goodbye forever, half of my life,
we had but one soul between the two of us.
But today it’s essential that this soul divide
by the bitter word of the final goodbye.

Why are we separated? Don’t they know
that life passes like the flower does?
We cross the world like migratory birds…
Tomorrow, the grave; why today, the pain?

Does the secret happiness of two who adore each other
anger the heavens, and must we suffer?
Are only the souls that cry
to the grim fate pleasant?… Is the law to die?

Are only the souls that cry
to the grim fate pleasant?… Is the law to die?

Who is fate?… It throws you into my arms,
imprints you on my soul, infuses you into my being,
and then, barbarically, it tears apart
my soul and my life with you… Why?

Goodbye… it’s necessary. Do not cry… and go.
They only take away the joy of seeing each other from us;
but to stop adoring you for a single moment,
to make me forget you. Can they? Never!

With eternal ties, we have united.
In vain fate wounds us both…
Souls that love do not have forgetfulness,
They have no absence, they have no goodbye!

Souls that love do not have forgetfulness,
They have no absence, they have no goodbye!
