Pasó El Tornado
Alfonso Ortiz Tirado
The Tornado Passed
I can't come to see you
I can't, my dear
Because the bridge has been taken away
By a tornado that passed
Because the bridge has been taken away
By a tornado that passed
The young men from the place
Are building a boat
So I can cross the river
Because I want to kiss you
So I can cross the river
Because I want to kiss you
Don't worry, my dear
Don't worry, it will soon be
The boat will be finished
And the rosebush with roses
The boat will be finished
And the rosebush with roses
The goldfinches haven't sung
My sky at dawn
The flowers are crying
The calandria has left me
The flowers are crying
The calandria has left me
And that cross from the hermitage
Where we used to pray
The tornado took it away
They can't find it
The tornado took it away
They can't find it
