El Capiro
Miguel Aceves Mejía
The Capiro
And this Capiro has already dried up
Having water in its foot
Maybe its leaves are right
But the Capiro... why
Take this bouquet of fresh flowers
That came from the Capiro
Tell me if you have new loves
So I don't get tangled up
If when passing by the Capiro
A capirena tells you
'When you see me with my husband
Don't make any signs'
Take this bouquet of fresh roses
'Pray' that your mom is not there
Oh, when she does
Look out your window
And this Capiro has already dried up
Having water in its foot
Maybe its leaves are right
But the Capiro... why
I bid farewell to my life
I'm leaving far from here
Oh, when she does
Keep a memory of me
