Letra 1 Verde que te quiero verde. Verde viento verde ramas. El Barco sobre la mar. El caballo y la montaña, verde.
Estribillo: (despues de cada verso) Yo te quiero verde, sí, sí. Yo te quiero verde, hay, ya, ya. Yo te quiero verde.
Letra 2 Con la sombra la cintura, ella sueña en su (la) baranda. Verdes ojos, negro pelo su cuerpo de fría plata verde.
Letra 3 Compadre quiero cambiar de mi caballo por tu casa, mi montura por tu espejo, mi cochillo por tu manta verde.
Letra 4 Compadre vengo sangrando desde los puertos de cabra y si yo fuera mozito. Éste trato lo cerraba verde.
Letra 5 Compadre quiero morir decentemente en mi cama, de celoso si puede ser con la sábana de Holanda verde.
Letra 6 ¿Compadre donde está dime? ¿Donde la casa niña amarga? ¿Cuantas veces la espero? ¿Cuantas veces la esperaba verde?
Letra 7 Temblaban en los tejados farolitos de ojalata. Mil panderos de crystal herían de la madrugada.
(English)
Green, how I want you, green. Green wind, green branches. The ship above the sea. The horse and the mountain, green.
(after each verse) I want you green, yes, yes. I want you green, hay, ya, ya. I want you green.
With the shade of her waist, she’s the dream on her banister. Green eyes, black hair, her body of cold silver, green.
Buddy, I want to change (direction) of my horse to her house,
my mount through your mirror, my knife through your blanket, green.
Buddy, I come bleeding from the doors of the goats and yes I went a young man. This was closed, green.
Buddy, I want to die decently, in my bed, if I am able, to be the zealous sheet of Holland green.
Buddy, where is she, tell me? Where’s the house of the bitter girl? How many times will I wait for her? How many times, have I waited?
Trembling on the roofs are little wishing lanterns like a thousand crystal tambourines were hurting the dawn.)
