Llegabas por el sendero
Delantal y trenzas sueltas.
Brillaban tus ojos negros
Claridad de luna llena.
Mis labios te hicieron daño
Al besar tu boca fresca.
Castigo me dio tu mano
Pero más golpeó tu ausencia. ¡ay!...
Volví por caminos blancos,
Volví sin poder llegar.
Grité con mi grito largo,
Canté sin saber cantar.
Cerraste los ojos negros.
Se volvió tu cara blanca.
Y llevamos tu silencio
Al sonar de las campanas.
La luna cayó en el agua.
El dolor golpeó mi pecho.
Con cuerdas de cien guitarras
Me trencé remordimientos. ¡ay!...
Volví por caminos viejos,
Volví sin poder llegar.
Grité con tu nombre muerto
Recé sin saber rezar.
Tristeza de haber querido
Tu rubor en un sendero.
Tristeza de los caminos
Que después ya no te vieron.
Silencio del camposanto.
Soledad de las estrellas.
Recuerdos que duelen tanto.
Delantal y trenzas negras. ¡ay!...
Volví por caminos muertos
Volví sin poder llegar.
Grité con tu nombre bueno,
Lloré sin saber llorar.
