Para ti la cancion carbonero
Reverencia tu oficio de sol
Por el clima dormido en tu carro
De carbon, de carbon
Escuche de tu voz carbonero
El azul de tu viejo pregon
En agosto ofrecias enero
De carbon, de carbon
Vamos carbonero
Con destino de carbon
Con lumbre de sueños
Calentando la ilusion
Que el frio y la noche se terminen con el sol
... Enciende en mi canto y tu carbon
Para el pobre es mas largo el invierno
No le niegues tu oscuro calor
Arrimale el verano moreno
De carbon, de carbon
Vamos carbonero
Con destino de carbon
Con lumbre de sueños
Calentando la ilusion
Que el frio y la noche se terminen con el sol
... Enciende en mi canto y tu carbon
Para ti la cancion carbonero ...
