Paroles et traduction Aida Cuevas - Dos Arbolitos

Dos Arbolitos

Han nacido en mi rancho
Dos arbolitos
Dos arbolitos que
Parecen gemelos

Y desde mi casita
Los veo solitos
Bajo el amparo santo y la luz del cielo

Nunca están separados
Uno del otro
Porque así quiso Dios
Que los dos nacieran

Y con sus mismas ramas
Se hacen caricias
Como si fueran novios
Que se quisieran

Arbolito, arbolito
Bajo tu sombra
Voy a esperar que el día cansado muera

Y cuando estoy solito
Mirando al cielo
Pido pa que me mande una compañera

Cuando voy a las siembras
Y a los maizales
Entre los surcos riego
Todo mi llanto

Solo tengo de amigos
Mis animales
A los que, con tristeza, siempre les canto

Arbolito, arbolito
Me siento solo
Quiero que me acompañes
Hasta que muera

Two Little Trees

Two little trees were born on my ranch,
Two little trees that
Look like twins.
They're always together,

And from my little house,
I watch them standing alone,
Under the protection of the saints and the light of heaven.

They are never apart,
One from the other,
Because that's how God wanted it,
For the two of them to be born.

And with their very own branches,
They caress each other,
As if they were lovers
Who love each other.

Little tree, little tree,
Under your shade,
I will wait for the weary day to die.

And when I am alone,
Looking at the sky,
I ask that you send me a companion.

When I go to the fields
And the cornfields,
I water all my tears
Between the furrows.

I only have my animals
As friends,
To whom I always sing with sadness.

Little tree, little tree,
I feel alone.
I want you to keep me company
Until I die.
