Por qué lloras me preguntan
Los amigos que no saben
De las penas del amor
Pues yo nunca dije a nadie
Que por pobre me dejó
Alentada por el lujo
De las joyas y los trajes
Que soñara su ilusión
Dio a otro hombre su cariño
Sepultando en mi destino
El puñal de la traición
Oro y seda
Por seguir tu caravana
El mejor de los encantos
El amor de la mujer
Oro y seda
Fantasías del engaño
Por sus goces, solo queda
Un sufrir al desdichado
Que a la ingrata dio su fe
Olvidarla ya no puedo
Ande alegre o ande triste
Llega a mi alma su cantar
Que es la trova que me diste
De congojas y pesar
Ya no es más la muñequita
De esperanzas y venturas
Que forjara en mi ideal
Y sus trenzas y ojos oscuros
Su melena es velo de humo
Que la venden al pasar
Oro y seda
Por seguir vuestro reflejo
Dando tumbos fuiste lejos
Mi adorada se perdió
Oro y seda
Os maldigo y me iré lejos
Al llorar todas las noches
Que me corren para viejo
De nostalgia y de dolor
