Puentecito de Mi Río
Daniel Viglietti
Little Bridge of My River
Little bridge of the river that flows
Towards the valley of fresh greenery,
How many times on the way to her house
To kiss the flower from her lips.
Over the river that flows singing
You heard my love songs.
Over the river that flows singing
You heard my love songs.
Old stone bridge among the flowers
Of my jungles and sierras of the chañar,
You are no longer as you were then over the river
That a thousand nights silvered the moons as they passed.
Broken the bridge, I will no longer be able to reach
With my verse, my song, and my ballad
To the ranch where lives the most beautiful,
The sweet country girl who adores the heart.
In the channel, it growls fiercely
Defying my love and my faith
But I will overcome this river
I will build another bridge over it.
And another night singing, singing,
I will return to your side, country girl.
And another night singing, singing,
I will return to your side, country girl.
