Canto a La Mujer de Mi Pueblo

Girl with black braids
Girl of loneliness
Dark skin of mountains
And lost villages

Light from the stove that carries
Fire of love that is rekindled

The sky your gaze
Has smiles of sunshine
And your brown little hands
Caresses of the earth

Who will watch over your dreams?
Who will comb your braids?

Little woman, your sorrows will go away
When love awakens in your life
And life will open a thousand secrets
Many that time saved

They say that among the cornfields
Their song is heard as they pass by
And through mountains and hills
The winds are carried away

Tender song of hope
You carry a mother's tenderness

Little woman, your sorrows will go away
When love awakens in your life
And life will open a thousand secrets
Many that time saved
