Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nadie me a visto salir si no fui yo
Una linda guachirita, allá voy yo
Que se vino tras de mi, que si señor
Si a tu ventana llega una paloma
Tratala con carino, que es mi persona
Cuéntale a tus amores bien de mi vida
Ay chinita que si
Ay que dame tu amor
Ay, que vente conmigo chinita linda
Adonde vivo yo
Chinita no, vente conmigo
Que alla voy yo
Chinita no, chinita si
Vente conmigo y sere feliz
Chinita si, chinita no
Vente conmigo que alla voy yo
