Traducción de la letra de la canción It Meant Goodbye to Me When You Said Hello to Him - Merle Haggard

It Meant Goodbye to Me When You Said Hello to Him (original)

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
I made a big mistake when
I introduced her to my friend
And gave him a chance to dance with her
As I watched them in the crowd
I could hear my heart beat loud
Because it meant goodbye to me
When she said hello to him
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
She just held on to his hand
When it was break time for the band
And it was plain to see that I’d lost out
So I slipped to wait and cry
Felt so low I could die
Because it meant goodbye to me
When she said hello to him
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Is there anywhere to go
Where a broken heart won’t show
Everyone must know what’s wrong with me
They can tell about my ways
I go around lost in the days
Because it meant goodbye to me
When she said hello to him
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

(traducción)

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Cometí un gran error cuando
Le presenté a mi amigo
Y le dio la oportunidad de bailar con ella
Mientras los miraba en la multitud
Podía escuchar mi corazón latir fuerte
porque significó un adiós para mí
Cuando ella le dijo hola
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Ella solo se aferró a su mano
Cuando era tiempo de descanso para la banda
Y era evidente que había perdido
Así que me deslicé a esperar y llorar
Me sentí tan bajo que podría morir
porque significó un adiós para mí
Cuando ella le dijo hola
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
¿Hay algún lugar a donde ir?
Donde un corazón roto no se mostrará
Todos deben saber lo que me pasa.
Pueden hablar de mis caminos
ando perdido en los dias
porque significó un adiós para mí
Cuando ella le dijo hola
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
