Chiquitita

Little One

Chiquitita

Little one tell me whyChiquitita dime porque
Today your pain chains youHoy tu dolor te encadena
In your eyes there isEn tus ojos hay
A shadow of fireUna sombra de candela

I wouldn't want to see you like thisNo quisiera verte así
Even if you want to pretendAunque quieras disimularlo
If you slept badlySi es que dormiste mal
Why do you want to keep it quietPara que quieres callarlo

Little one, you know very wellHay chiquitita sabes muy bien
That sorrows come and go and disappearQue las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
Once again you will dance and be happyOtra ves vas a bailar y serás feliz
Like flowers that bloomComo flores que florecen

Little one, and you cry............Hay chiquitita y lloras............
The stars shine for you up thereLas estrellas brillan por ti allá en lo alto
I want to see you smile to shareQuiero verte sonreír para compartir
The joy, little oneLa alegría chiquitita

Little one, tell meHay chiquitita dímelo tu
Your opinion, I'm here cryingTu opinión yo aquí llorando
Count on me nowCuenta conmigo ya
To keep singingPara así seguir cantando

I wouldn't want to see you like thisNo quisiera verte así
Even if you want to pretendAunque quieras disimularlo
If you are so sadSi es que tan triste estas
Why do you want to keep it quietPara que quieres callarlo

Little one, you know very wellHay chiquitita sabes muy bien
That sorrows come and go and disappearQue las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
Once again you will dance and be happyOtra ves vas a bailar y serás feliz
Like flowers that bloomComo flores que florecen

Little one, and you cry............Hay chiquitita y lloras...........
The stars shine for you up thereLas estrellas brillan por ti allá en lo alto
I want to see you smile to shareQuiero verte sonreír para compartir
The joy, little oneLa alegría chiquitita

Once again, I want to share your joy, little oneOtra vez, quiero compartir tu alegría chiquitita
