Caminito lyrics by Leopoldo Lugones
Caminito caminito
tan parecido a mi pena
cual si lo hubieran escrito
Mis lágrimas en la arena
Mísero pia en los cardos
Un pajarillo invernal
El frio eriza sus dardos
como un cardo de cristal
y el caminito persiste
en la llanura serena
Caminito largo y triste
tan parecido a mi pena
Path translation by Hélène Lindqvist
Path, path
so like my sorrow
as if someone had written it
with my tears in the sand
Wretched among the thistles
a winter bird
the cold raises its feathers
like a crystal thistle
and the path stays
on the calm plain
path, long and sad
so like my sorrow

Wonderful site and I love your performances as well as your art work! Check out songs by Jacques Leguerney and Ange Flégier!
Thanks Reechie, too bad I can’t change it now, but I will keep it in mind to check with you before I record another song in Spanish. Thank you for your support always and big kisses! H
Lovely song!
About pronunciation, the “r” sound can be soft or strong. In Arena, pajarillo it must be soft. I could not sing in German so I admire you. Anyway I hardly understand the lyrics of these songs even if they were sung by Victoria or Montserrat who were from Spain were the language was born. 😀
