La luna se abre en el cielo
Como una aurora de amor
Mientras un fuego de tola
Brilla en el fogon
La madre, rama sin tiempo
Brota por una cancion
Fruto de amores lejanos
Cantando sin voz
Palito de tola
Deje de llorar
Que cuando usted llora
Me vuelvo arenal
Duermase mi niño
Carne de cardon
Espina y ternura
Lo mismo que yo
Por cien caminos de llanto
El viento gime y su voz
Cuelga en el aire cencerros
De plata y dolor
Bienhaiga el sueño del pobre
Que no tiene un ruiseñor
Y solo espera en el alba
El oro del sol
