Cuando sientas cansada la vida y odies a ese hombre
Y si acaso te queda memoria recuerdame a mi,
que te sigue esperando con ansias siempre este rey pobre
que vendio hasta el palacio por verte dichosa y feliz
porque yo no compre tu pobreza, ni tu amor, ni tus besos
por amarte con toda mi vida y con palabra de rey
mi fortuna la puse en tus manos y con ella te fuiste
y a un rey pobre dejaste con ganas de volverte a ver
un rey pobre llorando dia y noche veras por las calles sufriendo de amor,
y sus ojos mirando un retrato sin decirle a nadie cual es su dolor,
si se caen las torres mas altas por eso un rey pobre por amor quedo.
porque yo no compre tu pobreza, ni tu amor, ni tus besos
por amarte con toda mi vida y con palabra de rey
mi fortuna la puse en tus manos y con ella te fuiste
y a un rey pobre dejaste con ganas de volverte a ver
un rey pobre llorando dia y noche veras por las calles sufriendo de amor,
y sus ojos mirando un retrato sin decirle a nadie cual es su dolor,
si se caen las torres mas altas por eso un rey pobre por amor quedo.
