Lyrics
¡Noche!...
Y qué cruel mi soledad.
Un abismo que insondable
Se hace amargo y es culpable,
Porque ya no volverás...
¡Nunca!...
Nunca más ya te tendré.
¿Por qué fuiste tan injusto?
Tú, Señor... que eres tan justo
Al llevármela a mamá... ¿Por qué?
Triste, va muriendo mi canción
Es otoño, en primavera,
Y las rosas, sensibleras
Se deshojan sin color.
 
¡Óyeme, mamá!
¿Dónde estarás que no contestas?
Y por qué...
Por qué no llega tu respuesta,
Cruel lamento, que es tormento
A quién decirle... ya no sé...
¡Óyeme, mamá!
Que junto al piano van mis manos
Y por ti, en mi teclado yo te canto,
Mi canción que es como un grito
De protesta y de rencor.
Óyeme, mamá
Si desde el cielo tú me miras,
Mírame... que en mi responso de dolor
Siempre, mamá... te llamaré...
English translation
Night!...
And how cruel my loneliness.
An abyss that unfathomable
Becomes bitter and guilty,
Because you won't come back...
Never!...
Never again will I have you.
Why were you so unjust?
You, Lord... you who are so just
In taking her away from my mother... Why?
Sad, my song is dying
It's autumn, in spring,
And the roses, sentimental
They fade without color.
 
Listen to me, mother!
Where are you that you don't answer?
And why...
Why doesn't your answer come,
Cruel lament, which is torment
Whom to tell... I don't know anymore...
Listen to me, mother!
That next to the piano go my hands
And for you, on my keyboard I sing to you,
My song that is like a cry
Of protest and rancor.
Listen to me, mother
If from heaven you look at me,
Look at me... that in my response of pain...
Always, Mama... I will call you...
