Jilgueros

Your sorrow is carried by the wind
Goldfinch, don't cry anymore
Flying away went your offspring
And will never return

This is how a child sang to a nest
The child who found it
Thinking of his good mother
And in a song he swore his love

I want to die by your side
I swear it, my mother
I want to always be with you
In your tears and your joy

It was his promised song
And a goldfinch that crossed
Gave its trills to the wind
And got lost in the wind

Crying, the mother waits
That the son grew up and left
Flying to other lands
Never wanting to return

And the young man as time passed
Goldfinch over high seas
Thinking of the beautiful mother
He returned home, he sang again

I want to die by your side
I swear it, my mother
I want to always be with you
In your tears and your joy

It was his promised song
And a goldfinch that crossed
Gave its trills to the wind
And got lost in the wind
