Madre Querida
Andando caminos aprendo a quererte
Tal vez mas que antes.
Pero estando lejos mas cerca me tienes,
Te lo juro madre.
Me diste la vida, el amor y luego me pusiste alas,
Me enseñaste el cielo
Pero igual que un ángel me cuidaste el vuelo.
Madre querida, madre adorada
Vuelvo a ser niño lejos de casa
Me veo en la orilla del río
Mezclando arenita y agua.
Madre querida, madre adorada,
Pasa la vida, la vida pasa
Y estás en mis sueños
Y estás en mi vida
Y estas en mi alma.
Que poca importancia en mi adolescencia
Le di a tus consejos,
Oyéndote acaso me hubiera evitado
Algún sufrimiento.
Pero mi alegría es poder tenerte,
Conversar contigo cuando voy a verte,
Probar tu comida, besarte la frente.
Madre querida, madre adorada
Vuelvo a ser niño lejos de casa
Me veo en la orilla del río
Mezclando arenita y agua.
Madre querida, madre adorada,
Pasa la vida, la vida pasa
Y estás en mis sueños
Y estás en mi vida
Y estas en mi alma.
Madre querida, madre adorada,
Madre querida...
Beloved Mother
Walking paths I learn to love you
Maybe more than before.
But being far away you have me closer,
I swear to you, mother.
You gave me life, love, and then you gave me wings,
You showed me the sky
But like an angel you watched over my flight.
Beloved mother, adored mother
I become a child again far from home
I see myself on the riverbank
Mixing sand and water.
Beloved mother, adored mother,
Life goes by, life passes
And you're in my dreams
And you're in my life
And you're in my soul.
How little importance in my adolescence
I gave to your advice,
Listening to you maybe would have spared me
Some suffering.
But my joy is being able to have you,
To talk to you when I come to see you,
Taste your food, kiss your forehead.
Beloved mother, adored mother
I become a child again far from home
I see myself on the riverbank
Mixing sand and water.
Beloved mother, adored mother,
Life goes by, life passes
And you're in my dreams
And you're in my life
And you're in my soul.
Beloved mother, adored mother,
Beloved mother...
