Oye morenita, te vas a quedar muy sola

Que abrieron el Liceo

Como es estudiante ya se va Escalona
As he is a student, Escalona is already leaving
Pero de recuerdo te deja un paseo
But as a souvenir it leaves you a walk
Que te habla, de aquel inmenso amor

Que llevo, dentro del corazón
What I carry, inside my heart
Que dice, todo lo que yo siento
What does it say, everything I feel
Que cura, hacia mi sentimiento

Ay! cantado con el lenguaje grato
Alas! Sung with pleasant language
Que tiene la tierra de Pedro Castro

Adiós morenita, me voy por la madrugada
Goodbye brunette, I'm leaving at dawn
No quiero que me llores porque me da dolor
I don't want you to cry to me because it gives me pain
Paso por Valencia, cojo la sabana

Caracolicito y luego a Fundación

Y entonces me tengo que meter

En un diablo que llaman tren

Y de tarde, se mete a Santa Marta

Ese orgullo que tu tienes no es muy bueno

Seguro que más tarde te vas a arrepentir

Yo solo he querido dejarte un recuerdo

Porque en Santa Marta me puedo morir

Y entonces me tienes que llorar

Y de ñapa me tienes que rezar

Entonces, te vas a arrepentir

De lo mucho que me hiciste sufrir
