Mama Vieja
Los Cantores Del Alba
Old Mother
When I left my hometown
I said goodbye with a wave
And old mother 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 mother, I sing to you from here
This zamba that I once promised you
Zambita will be the first
So you remember me
Although I am far away
From the town where I was born
I swear to you, my old mother
That I do not forget you
I know that at night
You look at me from a star
You went to heaven
And my soul cries and sighs
Old mother, I sing to you from here
This zamba that I once promised you
Zambita will be the first
So you remember me
