Ay, ay, ay, ayayaitay...
suelta el violin su llantito
quiere ayudarme a olvidar
la muerte del angelito
Velay si era chiquitito
sin un pecado solito
que Tata Dios se lo ha llevao
será de verlo solito
Hasta el kakuy del silencio
dolido huyó de las ramas
cuando la caja del alama
por el camino sonaba
Ay, ay, ay, ayayaitay
suelta el violín su llantito
quiere ayudarme a olvidar
la muerte del angelito
Cuando muere el angelito
ay, ay, ay, ayayaitay...
le cantan las alabanzas
será por su alma bendita
Los cirios de los cardones
prenden sus blancos ojitos
azulándose en las alas
que Dios le dió al pobrecito
Y lindo caballo blanco
le va llevando al huahuita
donde arpena rezabailes
pa' la niña Telesita.
