Noche de ronda
Que triste pasas
Que triste cruzas
Por mi balcón
Noche de ronda
Cómo me hieres noche de ronda

Cómo lastimas
Mi corazón

Luna que se quiebra
Sobre la tiniebla
De mi soledad
A dónde vas?
Dime se esta noche
Tú te vas de ronda
Como ella se fue
Con quién estás?

Dile que la quiero
Dile que me muero
De tanto esperar
Que vuelva ya
Que las rondas no son buenas
Que hacen daño, que dan penas
Y que acaban por llorar
