El Día de Tu Cumpleaños

Violeta Parra Violeta Parra

Your Birthday

My little one: You came into this world
At a very special time
You've rounded a year now
And I'm here to say hi
Let them sit at the table
Next to your mom
On the other side let it shine
All the warmth that's left behind

Since I have nothing to give you
And I wish I could give you more
I want the sun's rays
To wake you up for sure
And in the afternoon the bright star
To come and say hello
Then the moon can follow
With all its shining glow

Let them serve you the sweet drink
And the fresh baked bread
And put at your window
The seasonal flower instead
In the center of your heart
I write to spell it out
That your birthday's a big deal
No doubt about it, no doubt

On your birthday
We should raise the flags
From Arica to Magallanes
With colorful rags
Long live your birth
Little pear blossom!
With the will of the heavens
May you live a hundred years more!
