The Parents Know How to Feel

Violeta Parra

Los Paires Saben Sentir

Los paires saben sentir
Por una hija regalona
De ver que a otra persona
De nuevo vaya a servir
Una hija mandan pedir
Y la maire se dilata
Ya que en ella se retrata
Viendo una hija tan quería
Que si te vis aburría
Cásate, pues, hija ingrata

El hombre como prudente
Le pregunta a su mujer
Que si es de su parecer
No le quitemos su suerte
Será el gusto sus parientes
Dijo la novia acordarse
Como la estrella que nace
Al paire se le previno
Pá que cumpla su destino
De que las mozas se casen

El joven ya está esperando
La contestación en susto
De que era todo a su gusto
Dijo la maire llorando
Desde que estabai mamando
Hiciste nuestra campaña
Lágrimas de caravaña
Su madre derramará
Por su hija que se le va
Nacía de sus entrañas

The Parents Know How to Feel

The parents know how to feel
For a beloved daughter
To see that to another person
She will serve again
They ask for a daughter
And the mother expands
Since in her it is reflected
Seeing a daughter so dear
That if you get bored
Get married, then, ungrateful daughter

The man, as prudent
Asks his wife
If it is her opinion
Let's not take away her luck
It will be the pleasure of her relatives
Said the bride remembering
Like the star that is born
The father was warned
So that he fulfills his destiny
That the girls get married

The young man is already waiting
For the answer in fear
That everything was to his liking
Said the mother crying
Since you were breastfeeding
You made our campaign
Tears of caravan
His mother will shed
For her daughter who is leaving
Born from her womb
