La Casita

Where do I come from, friend?
From a little house I have down by the wheat field
From a small house
For a beautiful woman who wants to accompany me
In front, there are grapevines
Where the cicadas sing and the sun turns to dust
There's a porch at the front
In the garden, a fountain
In the fountain, a snail

Ivy covers them
And there's a jasmine in the orchard that already covered the walls
In the porch, a hammock, in the yard, a cow
And inside, my dog and I
Under a bouquet that covers her, The Virgin of Guadalupe
Is in the living room when you enter
She takes care of me when I sleep, watches over me when I'm sick
And helps me harvest

Further inside is the bed, smelling of broom
And as clean as you
I also have a canary, a mirror, and a wardrobe
That I bought at the fair
Even though it's pretty
My little house is very cool, I feel something when I see it
I've got it in my head, that there's a lot of sadness there
I think it's because you're missing
