El Hijo Mio

No sorrow fits me anymore
No one is happier than me
Today they told me I'm a father
Of a little boy like me

He will have a dark complexion
The son of my desires
Eyes like sorrow
Lips like carnations

Asleep will be the morning star
Reflecting in the river's glass
Oh, mother, how I love him
How I love this son of mine

Asleep will be the morning star
Reflecting in the river's glass
Oh, mother, how I love him
How I love this son of mine

Sleep, little morning star
Sleep, beautiful child, lullaby
