Una palomita blanca como la nieva, baja al rio a beber agua, bañarse quiere. Paloma, si vas al monte, mira que soy cazador. Si tiro un tiro y te mato, para ti será el dolor, paloma blanca como la nieve.

Une petite colombe blanche comme la neige, descend à la rivière pour boire de l'eau, elle veut se baigner. Colombe, si tu vas à la montagne, sache que je suis chasseur. Si je tire un coup et que je tues, pour toi sera la douleur,, colombe blanche comme la neige.
