Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El suave murmullo
De tu suspirar
Cómo ríe la vida
Si tus ojos negros
Me quieren mirar
Y si es mío el amparo
De tu risa leve
Ella aquieta mi herida,
Todo, todo se olvida.
El día que me quieras
La rosa que engalana,
Se vestirá de fiesta
Con su mejor color.
Y al viento las campanas
Dirán que ya eres mía,
Y locas las fontanas
Se contarán su amor.
La noche que me quieras
Desde el azul del cielo,
Las estrellas celosas
Nos mirarán pasar
Y un rayo misterioso
Hará, hará nido en tu pelo,
Luciérnaga curiosa que verá
Que eres mi consuelo.
La noche que me quieras
Desde el azul del cielo,
Las estrellas celosas
Nos mirarán pasar.
Y un rayo misterioso
Hará, hará nido en tu pelo,
Luciérnaga curiosa que verá
Que eres mi consuelo.
