Eres Tú
Los Tres Diamantes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eres, mi bien, lo que me tiene extasiado
¿Por qué negar que estoy de ti enamorado?
De tu dulce alma
Que es toda sentimiento

De esos ojazos negros de un raro fulgor
Que me dominan e incitan al amor
Eres un encanto

Eres mi ilusión

Dios
Dice que la gloria está en el cielo
Que es de los mortales
El consuelo al morir
Bendito Dios porque al tenerte yo en vida
No necesito ir al cielo tisú
Si alma mía (amor de mi ilusión)
La gloria eres tú

De tu dulce alma
Es toda sentimiento
Eres un encanto
Eres mi ilusión

Dios
Dice que la gloria está en el cielo
Que es de los mortales
El consuelo al morir

Bendito Dios porque al tenerte yo en vida
No necesito ir al cielo tisú

Si alma mía (amor de mi ilusión)
La gloria eres tú
