Esta Noche Serena
Helmut Lotti Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Esta noche serena
Sin luz de luna
Te cantar mis penas
Una por una
Porque t eres mi cielo
Yo tu lucero
Que por ti mi desvelo
Que por ti muero
Que por ti muero.

Las cuerdas de mi vida, alborozadas
Preludio en armonia, enarbolada
Para que un ritmo suave, enternecido
El arpeggio insinuante
Llegue a tu oido, Ilegue a tu oido.

Asmate a la reja
Quiero mirarte
Como el cielo a la estrella
Quieto adorarte

Porque t eres mi cielo
Yo tu lucero




Que por ti yo me muero
Que por ti muero, Que por ti muero
