Ya Me Voy

I'm heading far away from where I was born
I crossed the wild river to get here
My saintly mother put her blessing on me
And my beloved queen gave me a kiss before I left

I'm leaving now to the land where I was born
I miss my parents and my beloved who waits for me there
I'm leaving now, my friends, I have to go
I fulfilled my dreams and in my town I want to die

The crickets' song will lull me at night
And in the mornings, the roosters will sing to me
And in the afternoons, the games will wait for me
And with my friends, we'll go to the hill to sow

I'm leaving now to the land where I was born
I miss my parents and my beloved who waits for me there
I'm leaving now, my friends, I have to go
I fulfilled my dreams and in my town I want to die
