Pobre gringo solo y triste
que a la América viniste
con tu carga de ilusión.
Porque sos hermano nuestro
y tu noble condición
a nuestra vida se aferra,
un jilguero de esta tierra
te dedica su canción.
Estas vírgenes llanuras, que han regado tus sudores,
con la alegre canzonetta, con el pico y l'acordión;
te acarician dulcemente y bendicen tus amores,
porque es savia de la vida que nos llena el corazón.
Gringo hermano, fue mi padre, como vos un pobre gringo,
Pampa adentro, pala al hombro, al sonar de su canción,
fue sembrando la semilla y poblando los desiertos
con las fuerzas de sus brazos y la fe de su ilusión.
Pobre gringo solo y triste
que a la América viniste
con tu carga de ilusión,
quiera Dios que tu tristeza
te acompañe mi canción,
y que el bien que nos has hecho
abra otro zurco en mi pecho
para darte el corazón.
