A Mi Padre

En mi niñez, ¡oh, mi padre! Le vi

como un dios proveyendo por mí;

grande y fuerte, muy sabio varón;

siempre guiándome como timón.

Cuando caí, con ternura me alzó;

al fracasar, con amor corrigió;

en mis dolores, amigo muy fiel;

dando favores, paciente, sin hiel.

Siempre recuerdo su dulce bondad;

lleno de paz, de amor, caridad.

Toda mi vida, con manso mirar,

Siempre quisiera su faz respetar

A rouge English translation:

Oh, my Father, in my youth I looked upon you as a god who was providing for me, great and strong, a very wise man, always guiding me like a pilot.

When I fell, you raised me tenderly; when I made a mistake, you corrected me with love; in my sorrows, you were a very faithful friend, granting favors, without bitterness.

I’ll always remember your sweet goodness; full of peace, love, and charity. All my life I want to respect your face with a meek attitude.
