Ilusorio jardín del recuerdo
Pobre página triste de ayer
Dulce idilio de un pueblo lejano
Que nació en un bello atardecer
Aún evoco el camino empolvado
Que orillaba a una humilde mansión
Y aun recuerdo el rosal que crecía
Entre brisas, arrullos, perfumes y Sol
Que tardes más serenas
Que alegre primavera
El Sol en la pradera
Mi paso engalanó
En tus ojos leía
El sueño de ventura
Y mil besos de ternura
En tus labios bebí yo
Pero vino el invierno y con él
Sombra y frío a la casa llegó
Se moría la risa en tus labios
Y el viejo rosal del jardín se secó
Y una noche te fuiste de mí
Con la muerte que cruel te llevó
Y a tu lado tu marcha lloraba
Por toda la dicha que el tiempo truncó
Ilusorio jardín del recuerdo
Aún evoco
Que tarde más
En tus ojos
