Chiquitita

Little one tell me why
Today your pain chains you
In your eyes there is
A shadow of fire

I wouldn't want to see you like this
Even if you want to pretend
If you slept badly
Why do you want to keep it quiet

Little one, you know very well
That sorrows come and go and disappear
Once again you will dance and be happy
Like flowers that bloom

Little one, and you cry............
The stars shine for you up there
I want to see you smile to share
The joy, little one

Little one, tell me
Your opinion, I'm here crying
Count on me now
To keep singing

I wouldn't want to see you like this
Even if you want to pretend
If you are so sad
Why do you want to keep it quiet

Little one, you know very well
That sorrows come and go and disappear
Once again you will dance and be happy
Like flowers that bloom

Little one, and you cry............
The stars shine for you up there
I want to see you smile to share
The joy, little one

Once again, I want to share your joy, little one

Hey......... Chiqui chiqui tum
