Hey tu muchachita de mi vida
dame un beso

Cuando la vi me enamoré, 
me enamoré como por vez primera
Con ella sí mi amor sembré, 
e iluminé con luz de primavera.

Era tan linda, 
más linda que una estrella
Sus ojos bellos, 
mi corazón aún cautivan

Hey, tú, muchacha triste, 
ven, dame un beso, eso (ah)

Le quise hablar y me acerqué, 
no sé porqué pero temblé al verla
Pálida flor, me sonrió, 
mas su sonrisa era como una pena.

Era tan linda, 
más linda que una estrella
Sus ojos bellos, 
mi corazón aún cautivan

Hey, tú, muchacha triste, ven, 
dame un beso, eso

Ayer pasé por su balcón 
y la esperé como la vez primera
Ayer me habló, me dio una flor 
y supe que no volvería a verla

Era tan linda, 
más linda que una estrella
Sus ojos bellos, 
mi corazón aún cautivan
Hey, tú, muchacha triste, ven, 
dame un beso, eso (ah)
