El Inmigrante
La Mona Jiménez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dejo su pais
Todo lo que amo
Y sigue adelante
Hermano latino
Tendele tu mano
Dale un gran abrazo
Y tomen un vino
Que el te cuente las suyas
Dejen las tristezas
Olviden las penas
Que todo es alegria
El Inmigrante
Dejo sus querencias
Dejo su terruño
Su alma se le parte
Cuando por las noches
Se acuerda de todo
Todo lo querido
Lo que alla quedaron
Los que siempre añora
Llora como un niño
El Inmigrante
Dejo sus querencias
Dejo su terruño
Su alma se le parte
Cuando por las noches
Se acuerda de todo
Todo lo querido
Lo que alla quedaron
Los que siempre añora
Llora como un niño
Recuerda aquel dia
Armo su valijas
Y en aquella pieza
Quedo su alegria
Salio muy despacio
Y disimulaba
Que sucorazon
Se partia en pedazos
Dejaba su Cordoba
Buscando horizontes
Por eso es mi hermano
Abrazalo fuerte
Y hacele el aguante
Los que siempre añora
Llora como un niño
El Inmigrante
Dejo sus querencias
Dejo su terruño
Su alma se le parte
Cuando por las noches
Se acuerda de todo
Todo lo querido
Lo que alla quedaron
Los que siempre añora
Llora como un niño
