Esclavo del deber, vuelta tras vuelta
Acompasando siempre una canción,
Sin inmutar se va
Dejando su gotán
Al dulce piberío.
 
En la barriada crece su figura
Motivo de entusiasmo y bienestar,
Pues hay que adivinar,
Tras de su lento andar
Que su ternura es sin igual.
 
Caballo de calesita
Que con los ojos vendados,
Vas recorriendo distancias
Y siempre estás estancado.
Caballo de bondad
Juguete de placer,
Hoy que recuerdo el pasado
Pebete me vuelvo a ver.

English translation

Slave to duty, turn after turn
Accompanying always a song,
Undeterred he goes
Leaving his gotán
To the sweet piberío.
 
In the neighborhood grows his figure
Motive of enthusiasm and well-being,
For it is necessary to guess,
Behind her slow gait
That her tenderness is without equal.
 
Rickshaw horse
That blindfolded,
You go through distances
And you're always stuck.
Horse of kindness
Toy of pleasure,
Today that I remember the past
Pebete I see myself again.
