Un vals para mamá

(spoken)
I'm going to sing a waltz for you
with deep feeling,
flame of love burns in it,
the holy love of mothers
which is the purest in the world...

With verses that are roses, orchids, and magnolias
all united with music from God,
this waltz was born so pure like a bride's veil
written with the blood of the heart itself...
It emerged one of those nights when I thought of her the most,
of her who is the blessed soul of the home,
of her, the kindest of all on earth
that's why it's for her... a waltz for mom.

Mom, a simple word that is always pronounced
as if it were a prayer, with faith, with devotion,
marvelous woman who offers sacredly
her blood for her children in the name of love...
Her voice is a message that reaches the divine.
her lips only know of kisses and forgiveness,
in her, sorrows and martyrdom are condensed,
without demanding anything from us, she gives us her heart.

May those who have her never abandon her,
may they take care of the sublime treasure of her love,
may they kiss her hair whiter than snow
and may they love her greatly as I do...
Forgive me, but the memory has been so deep
that I feel desires to cry here in my chest,
thus, for my mother, and all the mothers in the world
I sang with all my soul... a waltz for mom.
