La Abuelita

Grandma, time has covered your hair with snow
Grandma, of all my sorrows, shelter and comfort

I am rich and happy, and let no one say
That I don't have a grandmother having you
And in my heart, for your tenderness
So clean and pure my song sprang

You are a mother like my own mother
Twice you adore me

Grandma, shining in my sky like a little star
Grandma, no matter the years, you remain beautiful
What caresses you gave me! My childhood games
With holy affection my grandmother watched

She watched over my dreams
When she told me stories
She kissed my forehead with a prayer

Grandma!
This song is for you!
