Lyrics
Anoche en mi cuarto muy triste yo estaba
Pensando en mil cosas sin querer pensar,
De pronto el pasado que ante mí marchaba
Lo mismo que un sueño que pasa fugaz.
Envuelto en la niebla del tiempo volvieron
Las horas felices que antaño pasé,
Y al recordarlas miré aquel tintero
Regalo de aquella, que tanto adoré.
 
Viejo amigo
Fiel tintero,
Compañero
De dolor.
Si supieras
Que te miro,
Y suspiro
Por su amor.
Viejo amigo
Fiel tintero
Serás siempre
Para mí,
El recuerdo
Inolvidable
De aquella
Que yo perdí.
 
Hoy pido de nuevo que vuelva a mi lado
Trayendo a mi vida una nueva ilusión,
Trayendo el suspiro de amor perfumado
Que yo enceguecido perdí sin razón.
Mi viejo tintero, hoy busco tu ayuda
Inspira el llamado que en mi carta va,
Y dile que vuelva, que ahuyente mi duda
Que triste me muero, si ella no está.
 
English translation
Last night in my room, very sad I was
Thinking of a thousand things without wanting to think,
Suddenly the past marched before me
Like a dream passing fleetingly by.
Wrapped in the mist of time returned
The happy hours I once spent,
And remembering them I looked at that inkwell
Gift of the one I adored so much.
 
Old friend
Faithful inkwell,
Companion
Of pain.
If you knew
That I look at you,
And sigh
For your love.
Old friend
Faithful inkwell
You will always be
To me,
The memory
Unforgettable
Of the one
That I lost.
 
Today I ask again for her to return to my side
Bringing to my life a new illusion,
Bringing the sigh of perfumed love
That I blinded lost for no reason.
My old inkwell, today I look for your help
Breathe in the call that goes in my letter,
And tell her to come back, to drive away my doubt.
How sad I die, if she is not here.
