Lyrics
Hace diez años sembramos un arbolito
Con la promesa de regarlo con cariño
Tú te quedaste, yo me fui a Estados Unidos
Sólo tus cartas mantuvieron mi esperanza
Y el arbolito que quedo atrás de tu casa
Me imaginaba ya tenia sus ramas altas
Hoy que venia a hacerte tu nido
El arbolito como creció
Y en un columpio juegan dos niños
Ya te casaste válgame Dios
Cuando lo supe sentí ganas de arrancarlo
Pero en mi vida nunca he sido vengativo
No te reprocho, mucho menos te maldigo
Qué culpa tienen esos chiquillos
De que su madre no me esperó
Que ellos disfruten del arbolito
Yo me regreso con mi dolor
Lyrics translation
Ten years ago we planted a little tree
With the promise to water it with love
You stayed, I went to America
Only your letters kept my hope
And the little tree behind your house
I imagined it already had its branches high
Today I came to make you your nest
The little tree as it grew
And on a swing play two children
You're already married.
When I found out, I felt like pulling it off.
But in my life I've never been vindictive
I don't blame you, much less curse you
What is the fault of these children
That his mother didn't wait for me
May they enjoy the little tree
I come back with my pain
