LyricsRUbistein added the lyrics in
Por la senda del dolor cruzaron en bandadas los recuerdos del ayertrayendo en pos aquel querer donde quemé la dulce fe de mi ilusión hecha canción; plegaria en flor que ayer bordé en el calor del cuchitril de bohemia...Ensueño azul que me dejó el sinsabor de mi anemia.Se tronchó mi corazón en la esperanza vana que asomara a mi balcóny que fatal me trajo el mal...RecitadoSoplaron vientos de hastío en los valles de mi viday trajeron las cenizas de mi lírica ilusión,hecha carne en las tinieblas de mi juventud perdidadonde murió mi bohemia con mi última canción.Hoy, la escarcha de los años me blanquearon los cabellosy estoy solo en la tragedia de mi triste soledad,pero aún siento la nostalgia de sus negros ojos bellosa pesar que no tuvieron para mí más que crueldad...
Juventud que ya se fue tras el vano sueño azul de ayer...Deshojada y mustia flor de amor... ¡Ilusión que mató el dolor!

Recorded by Aníbal Troilo in 1946
En las buenas o en las malas triunfante de pie o vencido, la mano del buen amigo, se tiende cordial y buena.Consuelo en la dura pena, aliento en amarga vida si adoré a mi madre en vida, también cultivé amistad.Si alguna vez me ves rodar tu mano firme y fiel me alzará fraternal.Tu corazón, noble sin par, está vibrando al son del violín dormilón.En los riscos del camino mil veces lloré vencido, mil veces fui mal herido, sangrando en la dura huella,de pronto alumbró una estrella tu mano me dio la vida se cerraron mis heridas al soplo de tu bondad.
(recitado)Mil veces caído sentí desmayar, mil veces tu mano me diste al pasar.Hermano fiel en mi orfandad tu mano firme y noble floreció en amistad.El tiempo cruel no ha de borrar jamás tu fiel recuerdo, buen amigo leal.
