Lyrics - Spanish
(Mexican folk song)
Naranja dulce, limón partido
Dame un abrazo que yo te pido.
Si fueran falsos mis juramentos,
En un momento se olvidarán.
Toca la marcha, mi pecho llora,
Ddiós señora, que ya me voy (repeat)
English Translation - Sweet orange
Orange sweet, lemon sliced
Give me a hug I ask from you.
If my promises were false,
In a moment they will be forgotten.
Play the march, my chest cries,
Farewell, lady, now I’m going away. (repeat)
