lyrics

Ladino:
Jo la keria
Mas ke mi vida
Mas ke su madre
La amava jo
I dezde entonses
Ke voj por el mundo
Kon el rekuerdo de mi amor

Una manjana
De puro invierno
En mis brasos
Eja murjo
I dezde entonses
Ke voj por el mundo
Kon el rekuerdo de mi amor.

Donde estas korason
Jo no puedo palpitar
Esta grande dolor
No la puedo sumportar
Jo keria jorar
Ma no tengo mas janto
La keria yo tanto i se fue
Para nunka mas tornar

English:
I loved her
More than my own life
More than her mother loved her
I loved her.
And since then
I pass through the world
Remembering that cherished love.

One morning,
In the cold of winter
In my arms
She passed away
And since then
I pass through the world
Remembering that cherished love.

Where are you, my heart?
I am not able to breathe
The pain is so deep
I cannot endure
I wanted to weep
But I have no more tears
I loved her so much and she left
Never to return again.
