Letra del Tango Si la llegaran a ver

Por un recuerdo que me sigue siempre,
por un pasado que borrar no puedo,
es esta pena cruel, es este gran amor,
que nunca, nunca, deja ya de florecer.
Por esos días de felices horas,
en mis desvelos, siempre, siempre están.
Tú eres mi mal sentimental
y yo un triste atardecer.

Si la llegaran a ver,
si la llegaran a hablar,
que no sepa que aún
yo tengo su querer
igual, igual clavado como ayer.
Si la llegaran a ver,
si la llegaran a hablar,
yo no quiero que le digan
de que aún está en mi corazón.

La tarde triste se revuelve en lluvia
y yo, muy solo, en mi ventana sueño,
golpeando en el cristal, las hojas al caer,
aumenta mi enorme decepción sentimental.
Ausencia enorme, soledad inmensa,
recuerdo triste, nudo de emoción.
Tú ya ni te acordarás de mi
yo en cambio pienso en ti.

English lyrics of the Tango "Si la llegaran a ver"

For a memory that always follows me,
for a past that I can’t erase,
it’s this cruel sorrow, it’s this great love,
that never, never stops blossoming.
For those days of happy hours,
in my sleeplessness, always, always there.
You are my sentimental pain,
and I am a sad sunset.

If they were to see you,
if they were to speak to you,
let them not know that I still
hold your love
the same, deeply embedded as before.
If they were to see you,
if they were to speak to you,
I don’t want them to tell you
that you’re still in my heart.

The sad afternoon stirs into rain
and I, very alone, dream at my window,
beating on the glass, the leaves as they fall,
increase my enormous sentimental disappointment.
Huge absence, immense loneliness,
sad memory, knot of emotion.
You might not even remember me,
but I, on the other hand, think of you.
