Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Muerte Del Palomo by Rocio Durcal from Spanish to English.
Nunca volverás paloma
You'll never return, dove
Triste está el palomar
The dovecote is sad
Solito quedó el palomo
The male dove was left all alone
Ahogándose entre sollozos
Drowning in sobs
Pues ya no puede volar
Since he can no longer fly
Pobrecito del palomo
Poor little male dove
Cansado está de sufrir
He's tired of suffering
Y mirando para el cielo
And looking up at the sky
A Dios le pide su muerte
He asks God for his death
Que así no quiere vivir
Because he doesn't want to live like this
En llorar, en llorar, en llorar
In crying, in crying, in crying
Desde que te fuiste
Since you left
Se le fue el palomo
The male dove lost himself
En puro llorar
In pure crying
Por llorar, por llorar, por llorar
From crying, from crying, from crying
Ya no puede ver
He can no longer see
Ni puede volar
Nor can he fly
Se acerca su muerte
His death is approaching
Está agonizando de tanto esperar
He's agonizing from waiting so much
Morirá, morirá, morirá
He'll die, he'll die, he'll die
Morirá el palomo
The male dove will die
Porque así es la muerte
Because that's how death is
Cuando hay soledad
When there's loneliness
Mirará hacia el cielo
He'll look towards the sky
Te verá volando
He'll see you flying
Te dará las gracias
He'll thank you
Por esos recuerdos
For those memories
Y al cruzar las alas
And upon crossing his wings
Que te covijaron
That sheltered you
Ahogarán sus sueños
They'll drown his dreams
Que no despertaron
That didn't awaken
En llorar, en llorar, en llorar
In crying, in crying, in crying
Desde que te fuiste
Since you left
Se le fue el palomo
The male dove lost himself
En puro llorar
In pure crying
Por llorar, por llorar, por llorar
From crying, from crying, from crying
Ya no puede ver
He can no longer see
Ni puede volar
Nor can he fly
Se acerca su muerte
His death is approaching
Está agonizando de tanto esperar
He's agonizing from waiting so much
Morirá, morirá, morirá
He'll die, he'll die, he'll die
Morirá el palomo
The male dove will die
Porque así es la muerte
Because that's how death is
Cuando hay soledad
When there's loneliness
Mirará hacia el cielo
He'll look towards the sky
Te verá volando
He'll see you flying
Te dará las gracias
He'll thank you
Por esos recuerdos
For those memories
Y al cruzar las alas
And upon crossing his wings
Que te covijaron
That sheltered you
Ahogarán sus sueños
They'll drown his dreams
Que no despertaron
That didn't awaken
