A los presentes prometo
Caramba, la cosa es muy seria
Para atajar la miseria
Haremos un gran parapeto
Haré un gran parapeto
Para atajar la miseria
Caramba, la cosa es seria
A los presentes prometo
De Picarquín voy al mundo
Con más fuerza y más amor
Es un anhelo profundo
Que la siembra sea mejor
Que la siembra sea mejor
Es un anhelo profundo
Con más fuerza y más amor
De Picarquín voy al mundo
También dejo prometido
Con mi voluntad tenaz
Que lucharé por la paz
Hasta caerme rendido
Hasta caerme rendido
Que lucharé por la paz
Con mi voluntad tenaz
También dejo prometido
La paz es más verdadera
Si le damos un sentido
Si la buscamos unidos
Si la cuidamos de veras
Si la cuidamos de veras
Si la buscamos unidos
Si le damos un sentido
La paz es más verdadera
