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

Language: French (Français) after the Spanish (Español)

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.
