Below, I translated the lyrics of the song The Sweetest Gift by Linda Ronstadt from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
One day a mother went to a prison
One day a mother went to a prison
To see an erring but precious son
To see an erring but precious son
She told the warden how much she loved him
She told the warden how much she loved him
It did not matter what he had done
It did not matter what he had done
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
She left a smile you can remember
She left a smile you can remember
She's gone to heaven from heartaches free
She's gone to heaven from heartaches free
Those walls around you could never change her
Those walls around you could never change her
You were her baby and e'er will be
You were her baby and e'er will be
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She did not bring to him a parole or pardon
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
She brought no silver, no pomp or style
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
It was a halo bright sent down from heaven's light
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
The sweetest gift, a mother's smile
