But is sad the destiny of three roses And my fate is even sadder I know it I know it You will leave me and I will lose Ah If the roses loose the leaves Ah You have forgotten me But my this hear tells me Hope ...... Maria will come back to you. Three roses you gave me, three roses Each rose had a thorn. Three roses, and a thorn held With a hidden poison for me A poison that touches and destroys And destroyed my life, because You will leave me and I will lose I know it and I want to die Ah The roses have lost their leaves Ah You have forgotten me But my heart tell me Hope ..... Maria will come back to you
