El Verde Pinito

At the foot of a green pine tree
I started crying for you
Crying day and night
For what you didn't do for me
Crying day and night
For what you didn't do for me

My girlfriend thanked me
And I soon went dancing
So she doesn't think that her love
Will dominate me
So she doesn't think that her love
Will dominate me

I entered your garden and picked
A brown-colored flower
I have loves and better ones
Not as proud as you
I have loves and better ones
Not as proud as you

I'm leaving this ranch now
Because I'm not from here
My loves are from afar
I'm from San Luis Potosi
My loves are from afar
I'm from San Luis Potosi
