And these are the lyrics:
Yo te quiero tanto
y aun no lo sabes
yo te quiero tanto
tierra de mi padre.
Quiero tus riberas Tus montes y valles, tus ojillos tristes...
que hacen recordar
y tus ojos tristes
que hacen Ilorar.
Un canto a Galicia
tierra de mi padre
un canto a Galicia
que es mi tierra madre.
Tengo morrir'ia
tengo saudade
porque estoy lejos
de esos tus lares.
