Gorrioncillo Pecho Amarillo
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Yellow-Chested Sparrow
Fluttering around the destroyed nest
A yellow-chested little sparrow
With its wings almost bleeding
It's looking for its little bird
When it gets tired, it stops and sings
And it even seems like it's crying
Then it moves away and goes singing
Only God knows why it's crying
Oh little sparrow, yellow-chested
Just seeing you makes me cry
Because God knows as I'm watching
That I'm bleeding just like you
Fluttering around the destroyed nest
A yellow-chested little sparrow
With its wings almost bleeding
It's looking for its little bird
Oh little sparrow, yellow-chested
Just seeing you makes me cry
Because God knows as I'm watching
That I'm bleeding just like you
