El viento quie recantar En las hojas del jardin Y no hace mas que llorar con lágrimas de jazmín Alma mía ¿en donde estas? Quieres cantar como el viento Y por todas partes vas pasando como un lamento. La tarde empieza á caer cual rosa que va amorir nadie puede al viento ver Aunque se lo oje gemir Le da su aroma la flor I lo salu da el pinar El viento es como el amor Que vive para volar Alma mía ¿en donde estas? Quieres ser un canto y siento Que sollozando te vas E res lo mismo que el viento.
