To you, my heart cries out perfidia
For I find you the love of my life
In somebody else's arms

Your eyes, are echoing perfidia
Forgetful of the promise of love
You're sharing another's charms

With a sad lament my dreams are faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh at what romantic fools we mortals be

And now, I know my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh
Perfidia's one goodbye
