On Univision (Spanish Channel), there is a really popular show called "Pequeños Gigantes" (Little Giants) that is about kids who compete in charisma, song and dance. Anyway, one of the kids who competes in singing nicknamed "Toñito" sang a beautiful song which he dedicated to his grandmother who had passed away. He explains in the intro video how he loved her so much. He sang with so much emotion that it was hard not to cry. The sad thing is, this past Saturday (8/11/12), his own mother passed away from a motor vehicle accident and his father is in the hospital due to health complications from the news of his wife. The show has been on for 2 months now and you get to like these kids... it's so sad knowing of the death of Toñito's mother.
Here is the video of the song he sang to his grandma
Here are the song lyrics in English:
TODAY I SING TO THE WOMAN OF WHITE HAIR THE ONE WHO GIVES ME HER LOVE WITHOUT CONDITION TO MY BELOVED MOTHER I SING THE SONG SHE KEPT INSIDE HER HEART
MY BELOVED MOTHER, YOUR LOVE IS SO IMMENSE LIKE THE LOVE FROM GOD THAT IS WHY, MOTHER, IN THIS, YOUR SPECIAL DAY THE STARS IN THE HEAVENS WILL SHINE IN YOUR HONOR
THE SONG OF THE BIRDS AND THE MURMUR OF THE WIND WILL UNITE WITH MY VOICE TU TELL YOU MOTHER THAT YOUR LOVE IS AS BIG AS GOD'S LOVE
