  Ojos azules, is a "taquirari" (traditional bolivian folklore) registered in 1947 by the Bolivian composer Gilberto Rojas Enriquez. The Peruvian composer Manuel Casazola Huancco was also erroneously attributed as the author of the song. According to investigations about the origin of the song, it was originally known as "Ojos bonitos" (Pretty Eyes), a traditional Peruvian huayno from Cuzco. The song remains popular in the repertoire of Andean music groups from Bolivia, Peru, Chile, and Argentina.
  
  ## Lyrics
  
     Ojos azules no llores,
     no llores ni te enamores.
     Llorarás cuando me vaya,
     cuando remedio ya no haya.
     Tú me juraste quererme,
     quererme toda la vida.
     No pasaron dos, tres días,
     tú te alejas y me dejas.
     En una copa de vino
     quisiera tomar veneno
     veneno para matarme,
     veneno para olvidarte.
  
  ### English translation
  
     Blue eyes don't cry
     Don't cry or fall in love
     You will cry after I leave
     When there is no more remedy
     You swore to love me
     Love me your entire life
     Two, three days went by
     You went away and left me
     In a wine glass
     I wish I could drink venom
     Venom to kill myself
     Venom to forget you
     You'll cry when I go away.
