Lyrics
Esta noche,
mejor dicho cuando llegue medianoche,
mis amigos,
yo festejo la tristeza de mi alma.
Brindaremos
por la dueña de los ojos más hermosos,
por mi vida... por mis sueños...
porque quiero ahogar los sueños de mi vida sin amor.

Yo no quiero recordarla.
¿Para qué voy a llorarla
si ya todo lo he perdido?
Esto digo muchas veces
pero entonces se aparece
frente a mí, como un castigo.
Y me mira desde el fondo de una sombra
y me vence... porque el alma me la nombra.
¿Cómo quieren, mis amigos,
que la arranque de mi vida
si no la puedo olvidar?

Muchos años
a su lado yo viví para quererla
y bastaron
unas horas nada más para perderla.
Ya no tengo ni una lágrima de amor... y son testigos
que esta noche, mis amigos,
vengo a ahogar en unas copas a mi vida sin amor.
English translation
Tonight,
or rather when midnight comes,
my friends,
I celebrate the sadness of my soul.
We will toast
to the owner of the most beautiful eyes,
to my life... to my dreams...
because I want to drown the dreams of my life without love.

I don't want to remember her.
Why should I mourn her
if I've already lost everything?
I say this many times
but then she appears
in front of me, like a punishment.
And it looks at me from the depths of a shadow
and it defeats me... because the soul names it to me.
How do you want, my friends,
to tear her out of my life
if I cannot forget her?

Many years
I lived by her side to love her
and it only took
a few hours were enough to lose her.
I no longer have even a tear of love... and you are witnesses
that tonight, my friends
I come to drown my loveless life in a few drinks.
