Mi Niña Bonita

Yo creo que a todos los hombres

I believe that all men

Les debe pasar lo mismo

Must go through the same thing

Que cuando van a ser padres

That when they are about to become fathers

Quisieran tener un niño

They would like to have a boy

Luego te nace una niña

Then a girl is born to you

Sufres una decepción

You suffer a disappointment

Y después la quieres tanto

And then you love her so much

Que hasta cambias de opinión

That you even change your mind

Es mi niña bonita

She's my beautiful girl

Con su carita de rosa

With her little rose face

Es mi niña bonita

She's my beautiful girl

Cada día más preciosa

More precious every day

Ay! Es mi niña bonita

Oh! She's my beautiful girl

Hecha de nardo y clavel

Made of nard and carnation

Es mi niña bonita

She's my beautiful girl

Es mi niña bonita

She's my beautiful girl

Cuanto la llegue a querer

How much I came to love her

Si un día se casa mi niña

If one day my girl gets married

Vestida de blanco armiño

Dressed in white ermine

Me acordaré que soñaba

I will remember that I dreamed

Con que al nacer fuera un niño

That when she was born, she was a boy

Por eso rezo y le pido

That's why I pray and ask

Al señor del gran poder

To the Lord of great power

Que al hombre que se la lleve

That the man who takes her away

La sepa siempre querer

Always knows how to love her
