Lleno de flores (flores)full of flowers (flowers).
Que crecen solo para tiThat grow only for you.
Ahora calla y se marchitaNow it’s silent and it withers,
Desde que no estás aquíever since you haven’t been here.
Pena y escarchaSorrow and frost,
Nos dejaron sin abrilleft us without an April.
De una flor nace la otraFrom one flower, another is born.
No se muere, sigue ahíIt doesn’t die, it’s still there.
