Cuando era un chiquillo, que alegría
When it was a chiquillo, what a joy
Jugando a la guerra noche y día
Playing war night and day
Saltando una verja, verte a ti y así
Skipping a watch, see yourself like that
En tus ojos algo nuevo descubrir
In your eyes something new to discover
Las rosas decían que eras mía
The roses decay that you were my
Y un gato me hacía compañía
And a cat kept me company
Desde que me dejaste, yo no sé, por qué
Since you left me, yo don't know, why
La ventana es mas grande sin tu amor
The window is bigger without your love
El gato que está en nuestro cielo
The cat that is in our sky
No va a volver a casa si no estás
Don't come home if you're not there
No sabes mi amor que noche bella
You don't know my love that night is beautiful
Presiento que tú estas en esa estrella
I assume you are in that star
El gato que está triste y azul
The cat that is sad and blue
Nunca se olvida que fuiste mía
Never forget that you were mine
Más sé que sabrá de mi sufrir
But I will only know that I will suffer
Porque en mis ojos una lágrima hay
Because in my eyes there is a tear
Querida, querida vida mía
Dear, dear my life
Reflejo de luna que reía
Reflection of a reigning moon
Si amar es errado culpa mía, te amé
If loving is wrong, it's my fault, I love you
En el fondo que es la vida, no lo sé
In the background that is life, in that case
El gato que está en nuestro cielo
The cat that is in our sky
No va a volver a casa si no estás
Don't come home if you're not there
No sabes mi amor que noche bella
You don't know my love that night is beautiful
Presiento que tu estás en esa estrella
I imagine that you are in that star
El gato que está triste y azul
The cat that is sad and blue
Nunca se olvida que fuiste mía
Never forget that you were mine
Más siempre serás en mi mirar
But you will always be in my sight
Lágrima clara de primavera
Clear spring tear
El gato que está en la oscuridad
The cat that is in the dark
Sabe que en mi alma una lágrima hay
You know that there is a tear in my soul
El gato que está triste y azul
The cat that is sad and blue
Nunca se olvida que fuiste mía
Never forget that you were mine
Más siempre serás en mi mirar
But you will always be in my sight
Lágrima clara de primavera
Clear spring tear
El gato que está triste y azul
The cat that is sad and blue
Nunca se olvida que fuiste mía
Never forget that you were mine
Más siempre serás en mi mirar
But you will always be in my sight
Lágrima clara de primavera
Clear spring tear
