El Mal De Amor (La Maladie D'Amour)
Michel Sardou · Other Songs - Michel Sardou
adaptation espagnole Rafael Gayoso Zuber
El mal de amor ataca el corazon
A todos por igual del mas pequeño al mas mayor
Con gran pasion, el rio del amor
Se lleva en su caudal hasta los que saben nadar
Puede mover el mundo, puede cambiar un hombre
Hace veces vivir tristeza y dolor
Es algo muy profundo que recibe mil nombres
Y como hay que sufrir cuando se va el amor
El mal de amor ataca el corazon
A todos por igual, del mas pequeño al mas mayor
Con gran pasion, el rio del amor
Se lleva en su caudal hasta los que saben nadar
A traicion se apodera de una pobre estudiante
Que se va enamorar del profesor de inglés
Cuando menos se espera, te lleva por delante
Cuanto te va a costar en olvidar después
El mal de amor ataca el corazon
A todos por igual, del mas pequeño al mas mayor
Con gran pasion, el rio del amor
Se lleva en su caudal hasta los que saben nadar.
