Son las tres de la mañana
Dicen que pena un santito
Bajito yo oigo que dice
Camínale despacito, ay mamá
Camínale despacito
Mi sueño me dice: No vayas
Mis piernas me dicen tantito
Y cuando ya me doy cuenta, caramba
Me muevo poco a poquito, ay mamá
Me muevo poco a poquito
Serás tú, Zapata
El que escucho aquí
Con tu luz perpetua
Que en tus ojos vi
En mi mente se oye
Que me dice así
En mi mente se oye
Que me dice así
Por la sombra de la selva
Se escuchó un disparo
Y cayó un gallo negro
Por la calle de milagro
Si tú dices que me quieres
Con el todo al todo
Y te vas tú, conmigo
Levantamos polvo
Ay ay ay ay
Cuando sueño contigo
Se dibuja el sereno
Por todo mi camino
Ay ay ay ay
Cuando sueño contigo
No hay ni miedo ni duda
Sobre mi destino
