Momposina
Jaime Llano González Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mi vida está pendiente de una rosa porque es hermosa y aunque tenga
Espinas, Me la voy a llevar a mi
Casita porque es bonita mi rosa momposina.
Tienen sus ojos la dulce ensoñación de mi linda región, po
R eso yo la quiero,
Ella me ha dado toda la inspiración de
Mi linda canción, porque ella es mi Lucero.
¡Ay! Pero si llega el otro jardinero aunque me diga que es puro
Banquero no le permito ni que me la
Miré porque él lo sabe que yo soy su dueño.
Momposina, ven a mi ranchito,
Momposina, ven para quererte,




Momposina, lindo lucerito,
Momposina, yo quiero tenerte.
