Rosa
Los Tres Caballeros Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mi vida triste jardín
Tuvo el encanto de tus perfumes y tu carmín
Brotaste de la ilusión
Y perfumaste con tus recuerdos mi corazón
Rosa palpitante
Divina rosa que encendió mi amor
Eres en mi vida remedio de la herida que otro amor dejó
Rosa deslumbrante

Que en un instante mi alma cautivó
Rosa la más hermosa
La primorosa flor que mi ser perfumó

Rosa la más hermosa
La primorosa flor que mi ser perfumó
