Claveles a Mi Padre

To you, dear father, who has loved me so muchA ti querido padre que tanto me has amado
And that you have given your lifeY que has dado la vida
To watch over mePara velar por mí
To you because I love you the same as my motherA ti porque te quiero lo mismo que a mi madre
I dedicate this song that I sang to youEsta canción que cante te la dedico a ti
I know that the snow that covers your headYo sé que aquella nieve que cubre tu cabeza
He gave it to you as a sacrifice for thisTe la dio el sacrificio por este
