Mama Vieja
Ignacio Corsini
Old Mama
For you, my old mama
Watching me from the sky
I sing to you in this zamba
My most heartfelt memories
When I left my hometown
I waved goodbye
And old mama stayed
Very sad at the ranch's door
She gave me permission
Which I paid with a thousand kisses
And I set off on the path
With my baggage of dreams
Old mama; I sing to you from here
This zamba that I once promised you
Zambita will be the first
So you remember me
Even though I am far away
From the town where I was born
I swear, my old mama
That I don't forget about you
I know that at night
You watch me from a star
You went to heaven
And my soul cries and sighs
Old mama; I sing to you from here
This zamba that I once promised you
Zambita will be the first
So you remember me
