                                                               Vendéronlle os bois,
                                                               vendéronlle as vacas,
                                                               o pote do caldo
                                                               e a manta da cama.

                                                               Vendéronlle o carro
                                                               e as leiras que tiña,
                                                               deixárono soio
                                                               coa roupa vestida.

                                                               "María, eu son mozo,
                                                               pedir non me é dado,
                                                               eu vou polo mundo
                                                               pra ver de ganalo.

                                                               Galicia está pobre,
                                                               e á Habana me vou...
                                                               ¡Adeus, adeus, prendas
                                                               do meu corazón!"
