Charly
Rodolfo Aicardi Con Los Liricos Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Le llamaba Charly

La encontré en la calle tendida
Y lloró de hambre
Charly
Temblorosa y perdida
Casi sin vida
Yo le dije ven mi vida

No se si recuerde
Y le he abierto mis puertas
Sus alas abiertas
Sobre Charly
Yo le dije lo nuevo
Esperanzas y calores de mis besos.

Tuviste suerte
Para cruzarte en mi camino
Ese talves es tu destino
Oh Charly

Tuviste suerte
Para cruzarte en mi camino
Ese talves es tu destino
Oh Charly

Te presté cuidado
Poco a poco
Vivir me juraste siempre a tu lado
Charly
Se marchó de mi vida
Vivo esperando que regrese
Algún día

Tuviste suerte
Para cruzarte en mi camino
Ese tal ves es tu destino
Oh Charly (bis)

Tuviste suerte
Para cruzarte en mi camino

Ese tal ves es tu destino
Oh Charly (bis)...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Charly" by Rodolfo Aicardi Con Los Liricos tell the story of a lost and trembling stray dog that the singer finds on the street. The dog, named Charly, was crying from hunger and almost lifeless. The singer takes the dog in and offers it a new life, filled with love and care. He promises to take care of the dog, and Charly pledges to live by his side. However, the dog disappears from his life, and the singer longs to see Charly again, hoping that one day he will come back to him.

The lyrics of this song speak to the love and companionship that humans can share with animals. It shows how we can take care of and offer a new life to those in need, even if they are animals. The song also touches upon the idea of destiny, that perhaps Charly's fate was to cross paths with the singer and change his life for the better.
