Historia de un Amor (Spanish for “a love story”) is a song about a man’s old love written by Panamanian songwriter Carlos Eleta Almarán. It was written after the death of his brother’s wife. It is also in the soundtrack of a 1956 Mexican movie of the same name starring Libertad Lamarque. The song tells of a man’s suffering after his love has disappeared. It may be interpreted that love is a story for a woman but it’s just an episode for a man. It was sung or played by many artists: Guadalupe Pineda, Eydie Gormé & Trio Los Panchos, Los Paraguayos, Nicola Di Bari, Abbe Lane, Julio Iglesias, Angélica María, Nana Mouskouri, George Dalaras, Perez Prado, Laura Fygi, Iva Zanicchi, Dizzy Reece, Pedro Infante, Dalida, Ana Gabriel, Luis Miguel, Yasar, Lili Boniche, Los Tres Ases, Dany Brillant, Sargis Maghakyan Sr., etc. In the film “Visage” by Tsai Ming-liang it was sung by Laetitia Casta. It has also been heavily covered in Chinese, with at least 3 sets of lyrics.

Lyrics
| Historia De Un Amor Ya no estas mas a mi lado corazon En el alma solo tengo soledad Y si ya no puedo verte Porque Dios me hizo quererte Para hacerme sufrir mas Siempre fuiste la razon de mi existir Adorarte para mi fue religion Y en tus besos yo encontraba El amor que me brindaba El amor y la passion Es la historia de un amor como no hay otro igual Que me hizo comprender todo el bien, todo el mal Que le dio luz a mi vida Apagandola despues Ay que vida tan obscurasin tu amor no vivire…
Es la historia de un amor |
The story of a love Your not by my side now my love In my soul I only have darkness and if I can’t see you now why did god make me love you to make me suffer more you were always the reason for my existence adoring you, for me, was a religion and in your kisses I found The love that gave me the love and the passion its the story of a love like none that will ever again be that made me understand all the good and all the bad that gave light to my life turning it off again oh what a life so dark without your love I cannot live… |
