Meciendo
Language: Spanish (Español)
El mar sus millares de olas mece divino. Oyendo a los mares amantes mezo a mi niño. El viento errabundo en la noche mece los trigos. Oyendo a los vientos amantes mezo a mi niño. Dios Padre sus miles de mundos mece sin ruido. Sintiendo su mano en la sombra mezo a mi niño.
