La Costurera
Niña Pastori
The Seamstress
Give me an apron
And a needle and thread and a thimble
And a patch of affection
With my lips I saw to embroider
Threading your love
I noticed a loose stitch
Through the tear you can be seen
A hidden little mole
With threads I've embroidered it
With colors an affection
I saw to tailor it to my body
To feel that you are with me
Because tonight
If I want to love you, I have no means
Give me an apron
And a needle and thread and a thimble
And a patch of affection
With my lips I saw to embroider
The sewing I do
Has no secrets
They are women's things
Learned over time
I am the seamstress of your dreams
And I want to give you
A dawn of white roses
And a dawn of foam and mother-of-pearl
Give me an apron
And a needle and thread and a thimble
And a patch of affection
With my lips I saw to embroider.
