Tu m'aguardas ya. Lo peito me brinca'n tornarte a besar. Lo nuestro querer no se crebará anque charren muito y te fagan plorar. Yo no'n quiero vier güellos de cristal mulláus por glarimas que culpa no han. Escuita, muller, dixa de plorar. Yo siempre he estau tuyo, tu mía has d'estar. Dicen qu'un querer ye de dos, no más, y que ye más fácil ferlo caminar, cuando l'uno caye, l'otro a devantar. Cuando l'uno caye, l'otro a devantar; s'ha feito de nuey, tu m'aguardas ya, lo peito me brinca, te quiero besar! :— Pepe Lera, Hecho, August 1980See also
