Because of a devil woman, I lost my tranquility
In my heart she left a thorn for as long as we're apart
She was conscienceless and hateful
Ripped your heart out while she smiled
Then she went and found another, left me with my bleeding heart
I remember by the river in the shade of an oak tree
She gave me all her loving there for all the world to see
Then while we were in the water, this I'll remember for life
As she kissed me and she held me, I knew she would break my heart
They say time heals every wound picked up on the road of love
But you cannot prove it by me, every day I love her more
I've lost my peace and calmness, all I do is sit and cry
For this loneliness will kill me slowly while we are apart
A la orillita del río, a la sombra de un pirul
Su querer fue solo mío, una mañanita azul
Y después en el piragua, nos fuimos a navegar
Qué lindo se movía el agua, cuando yo la volví a besar
Dicen que el tiempo nos quita los pesares del amor
Pero a mí se me afigura que con cada día estoy peor
No tengo dicha ni calma y a veces me hacen llorar
Pues me duele tanto el alma que no puedo ni resollar
