Lyrics

Español

Yo soy de San Telmo y vengo Por estos barrios para dejar, Un verso para las madres Y mozas de mi ciudad. Yo soy un cantor sincero Sencillo y sentimental, Trabajo como el hornero Y canto como el zorzal. Siempre supe respetar Al que habló y trató conmigo, En San Telmo me conocen Por cantor y buen amigo. Si hay que calmar el dolor Del que vive padeciendo, Soy primero en la ocasión Para aliviar su corazón.

English · machine translation

I am from San Telmo and I come Through these neighborhoods to leave, A verse for the mothers And wenches of my city. I am a sincere singer Simple and sentimental, I work like the baker And I sing like the thrush. I always knew how to respect To the one who talked and dealt with me, In San Telmo they know me As a singer and a good friend. If it is necessary to soothe the pain Of those who live in pain, I am first in the occasion To soothe his heart.
