Lyrics

Español

Soy del tiempo que se fue, con la canción, que en Buenos Aires se oía en la guitarra cantar, con emoción, 'Pobre mi madre querida'; cuando el mate iba y venía detrás del pan de cremona y era sentir un placer, pasar así, más de un atardecer. Aprendí del pasado a ser quien soy, a dejar un recuerdo donde voy y a saber que un buen amigo en la vida vale más que lo que pueda tener; y ayudar sin que me rindan honor al que a mi venga a pedirme un favor.

English · machine translation

I am from the time that went away, with the song, that in Buenos Aires could be heard in the guitar to sing, with emotion, 'Pobre mi madre querida' (Poor my dear mother); when the mate came and went behind the cremona bread and it was a pleasure to spend more than one sunset, more than one sunset. I learned from the past to be who I am, to leave a memory wherever I go and to know that a good friend in life is worth more than what I can have; and to help without being honored whoever comes to me to ask me for a favor.
