Es fuego de amor
Luz de mi sol por cal y tierra
Por donde pasas dejas huella

Mujer tu naciste para querer
Has luchado por volver a tu tierra
Y con tu gente
Has vuelto melina alza tus manos
Hacia adiós que el escuche tu vos

Has vuelto melina
Tus ojos reflejan el dolor
Y tu alma el amor

Y vuelven a reír tus ojos tristes

Donde el mar se hizo gris
Donde el llanto ahora es canto
