Como atardecer
Que se va sin Sol
Igual que el adiós
Del que no ha’i volver
Tristecita soy
Como aquel llorar
De la caja al son
Lo mismito yo
Lamento y cantar
Tristecita soy
Como flor de cruz
Mi congoja doy
Nido sin calor
Ranchito sin luz
Tristecita soy
Yo canté un querer
Que una vez vivió
Y mi canto fue
Zambita feliz
Como aquel querer
Cariñito al fin
Quiso y olvidó
La vida es así
Alegría ayer
Y tristezas hoy
Por gauchita y fiel
Hoy llorando estoy
Como aquel adiós
Del que no ha’i volver
Tristecita soy
