Lejos de Mi Hogar

Today that I am far from my town
The land where I was born

How I fondly remember
My family, my friends

Oh, if you only knew how much I suffer
Oh, if you only knew how much I cry

I think of my mother when she said
Oh my son, where are you going?

Now I feel lonely and sad
In my room, I find no one

How much I miss my children
How much I miss my mother

I didn't want to leave them
What can I do, this is my life

I only ask God for one day
To return happily to see my home

So they can dance to it
In the Coast, Sierra, and Oriente

This is our music

This is Ecuador

Go!

Today that I am far from my town
The land where I was born

How I fondly remember
My family, my friends

Oh, if you only knew how much I suffer
Oh, if you only knew how much I cry

I think of my mother when she said
Oh my son, where are you going?

But yes, someday I will return

Now I feel lonely and sad
In my room, I find no one

How much I miss my children
How much I miss my mother

I didn't want to leave them
What can I do, this is my life

I only ask God for one day
To return happily to see my home
