|---|---|
| De amplia miel | of ample honey |
| Era su corazon en agraz | It was her heart from her in agraz |
| Y su boca locuaz | And her loquacious mouth |
| Como un viento fluvial | Like a river wind |
| La corriente total | the total current |
| De su sangre en accion | Of her blood of hers in action |
| La arrastraba en turbion | She dragged her in turbion |
| Convencido y caudal | Convinced and flow |
| No fue extraña al telar | She was no stranger to the loom |
| Por la usina paso | I pass through the plant |
| A la greda volvio | He returned to clay |
| Regreso de la mar | return from the sea |
| Y a mi lado durmio | And by my side he slept |
| Germino con aquel | I germinate with that |
| Resplandor maternal | maternal glow |
| Que la hacia panal | that made her honeycomb |
| Y la henchia de ser | And the joy of being |
| Y aprendio al comprender | And learned by understanding |
| Y comprendio al pensar | And he understood when he thought |
| Y penso al militar | And I think of the military |
| Y milito al crecer | And milito when I grow up |
| No fue extraña al telar | She was no stranger to the loom |
| Por la usina paso | I pass through the plant |
| A la greda volvio | He returned to clay |
| Regreso de la mar y a mi lado soño | I return from the sea and by my side I dream |
| Cuando ardio la ciudad | when the city burned |
| Cuando el tanque arraso | When the tank swept |
| Y su pueblo cayo | And her people fell from her |
| Traicionado otra vez | betrayed again |
| La vi mucho a traves | I saw her through a lot |
| De los meses actuar | of the months act |
| Trabajar, ayudar | work, help |
| Desgarrarse los pies | tear your feet |
| No fue extraña al telar… | She was no stranger to the loom… |
| Desaparecio | He disappeared |
