Lyrics
Español
Anselmo Acuña, el resero, cuando se siente cantor en su humildad de gorrión, tiene el alma de un jilguero. Ni lerdo, ni perezoso, manso y fuerte como un buey Anselmo Acuña, el resero, es un criollo de ley. Tropa, tropa, tropa, no la llores corazón... Hermano de las estrellas eran los ojos de aquella, dos trenzas de seda negra, coronaban su cabeza, y era su boca una breva, con una herida cereza. Por qué que aumentar la tristeza... no la llores corazón.
English · machine translation
Anselmo Acuña, the resero, when he feels like a singer in his humility of a sparrow, has the soul of a goldfinch. Neither slow nor lazy, meek and strong as an ox Anselmo Acuña, the resero, is a true Creole. Troop, troop, troop, don't cry it heart... Brother of the stars were the eyes of that one, two braids of black silk, crowned her head, and her mouth was a heather, with a cherry wound. Why increase the sadness... do not mourn her heart.
