Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Please please don't cry, this is just adios and not good-bye
Soon I'll return, bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say "Si Si" say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
Blue Spanish eyes, prettiest eyes in all of Mexico
Blue Spanish eyes, please smile for me once more before I go
Soon I'll return, bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Uh, uh, uh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Soon I'll return, bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say "Si Si" say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
"Spanish Eyes" by Engelbert Humperdinck is a love song that expresses the emotions of a man who is saying goodbye to a woman with beautiful blue eyes. The tears in her eyes evoke an intense feeling of sadness in him as he tells her that he will soon return, bringing her all the love her heart can hold. He wants her to wait for him and promises to come back to her. He asks her to say "Si Si" to confirm that she will wait for him.
The song highlights the beauty of the woman's blue Spanish eyes which are described as the prettiest eyes in all of Mexico. The repeated use of "blue Spanish eyes" accentuates the importance of her eyes to the man, which are a symbol of her beauty and charm. The lyrics express a sense of longing for the woman, and the words "this is just adios and not goodbye" suggest a temporary departure rather than a permanent one. The song's message is ultimately hopeful, emphasizing the strength of the love between the two and the power of hope to sustain relationships.

My parents used to dance to this song during my childhood during the 1960s. This song was well known throughout the Caribbean region along with theorist classic love-themed melodies. Englebert’s voice will never be replicated!
