Soy Huerfanito

I'm a peasant and work in the field
I'm a little orphan and I don't have a mom

I was born alone here in this world
Without a father and mother, nor siblings

Now that I've grown up and I'm quite big
I've asked who my mom is

And an old lady tells me crying
My dear child, you don't have a mom

Your mother died when you were born
And here with me, she left you

Beloved son, I don't want you to suffer
Come here with me, here I live

I always dream of my poor mother
Who comes to take care of me at night

And she tells me, my dear child
I don't want you to suffer, I am your mom

My poor mother has gone forever
She will be happier up in heaven

Dear mother, here I am nothing
I would rather be with you

Goodbye friends, I'm leaving forever
I will never come back in life

Back in my town where I was born
But its memories make me cry today
