• Notes: There are wonderful cross-rhythms at play throughout this song. They should be gently marked by percussion instruments (e.g., claves playing a large 2 pattern (3+3), triangle playing a 3 pattern (2+2+2), and a soft shaker marking the incessant eighth notes.) The first eight measures of each stanza may be repeated.
