Maringa
La pastora mas hermosa
Que muri de tanto amar,
Como las flores
Fue muy breve su vivir
Marchito por sus amores
Maringa, maringa
Despu??s que t?? partiste
Todo el pueblo qued?? triste
Porque amaban tu bondad.
Maringa, maringa
Tu quisiste hasta la muerte
Y el martirio de tu suerte
Solo dios comprender
Maringa, maringa
Merecas el amor
Y cortaron tu rosal,
Tu destino era de flor.
