Madrecita

Dear mother, I confess to you, that my love
For you doesn't change
And even though sometimes your advice
I no longer want to hear
Never stop telling me that you love me
And that everything you say is for my own good

Many times I don't understand your eagerness to correct me
To tell me that the things
I do are not right
But then when I see your sad eyes
It moves me to see you cry for me

Chorus
My father, God in heaven, make me good
To give the best to this being
Do not allow me to cause her sadness
For she has suffered enough for me

Many times I don't understand your eagerness to correct me
To tell me that the things
I do are not right
But then when I see your sad eyes
It moves me to see you cry for me

Chorus
My father, God in heaven, make me good
To give the best to this being
Do not allow me to cause her sadness
For she has suffered enough for me
