CAMINITO

Tango lyrics written in the year 1926

   Little path that time has erased,
   That one day saw us pass by together,
   I have come for the last time,
   I have come to tell you my woes,

   Little path, you were then,
   embroidered in clover
   and flowering reeds,
   a shadow you will soon be,
   a shadow the same as myself.

   Since she left
   I live in sadness,
   little road my friend,
   I'm leaving also.

   Since she left
   she never returned,
   I'll follow her steps,
   little path, goodbye.

   Little path which every afternoon
   I happily traveled singing of my love
   don't tell her if she passes through
   again that my tears watered your tracks.

   Little path covered with thistle,
   the hand of time erased your tracks.
   I would like to fall beside you
   and let time kill us both.
