Mercedita

What a sweet charm they have
Your memories, Merceditas
Fragrant little flower
My love at once

I met her in the countryside
Far away one afternoon
Where the wheat fields grow
Province of Santa Fe

This is how our love was born
With enthusiasm, with great faith
But I don't know why the flower
It withered and died

And loving her with a crazy love
So I came to understand
What it is to love, what it is to suffer
Because I gave him my heart

Like a wandering complaint
In the countryside it floats
The vague echo of my song
Remembering that love

But despite the time
Merceditas has passed
The legend that beats today
In my nostalgic song

This is how our love was born
With enthusiasm, with great faith
But I don't know why the flower
It withered and died

And loving her with a crazy love
So I came to understand
What it is to love, what it is to suffer
Because I gave him my heart
