Una para saludarte y otra para decirte adiós,Ĭon jasmines y flores hoy te vengo a saludar, Para venirte a cantar con la música del cielo,ĭe las estrellas del cielo tengo que bajarte dos, Quisiera ser un San Juan, quisiera ser un San Pedro, Y darte los buenos días acostadita en tu cama, Quisiera ser solecito para entrar por tu ventana, Levántate de mañana, mira que ya amaneció.
