The Milpa*
How beautiful the milpa1 is
surrounded by sunflowers,
where the cattle thresh,
it's raining now while the sun is out.2
The early rising birds
taught me the song
that I sing behind the plow
where my heart cries.
Little grain you must eat,
little grain you must eat,
if you want to see the harvest
first you must do your part,3
if you want to see the harvest
first you must do your part.
How beautiful the milpa,
it smells of herbs, it smells of flowers,
when night falls
it hurts a little bit.
The early rising birds
taught me the song
that I sing behind the plow
where my heart cries.
Little grain you must eat,
little grain you must eat,
if you want to see the harvest
first you must do your part,
if you want to see the harvest
first you must do your part.
