Charly
Rodolfo Aicardi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Se llamaba charly
La encontre en la calle tendida
Y lloro de hambre... charly

Temblorosa y perdida casi sin vida
Se sintio sola y vencida
Sus chillidos sordos
Sin aliento ni fuerza
En sus alas abiertas
Pobre charly

Yo le di nido nuevo
Esperanza y calor entre mis dedos

Tuviste suerte al cruzarte en mi camino
Yo te salve de tu destino
Oh... charly

Tuviste suerte al cruzarte en mi camino
Yo te salve de tu destino
Oh... charly

Te preste cuidados
Poco a poco viviste y curaste
Siempre a mi lado
Charly
Mas tus ancias de vuelo
Le llevaron a volar libre
Hacia el cielo

Tuviste suerte al cruzarte en mi camino




Yo te salve de tu destino
Oh... charly

Temaso de Rodolfo Aicardi, aunque la escuché primero por el grupo Español Santabarbara en el año 1,974 que también es buenísimo el tema.
