Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hoy traigo para ti, reina de mis amores
Rosas que recogí, las más hermosas flores
Aquí estoy a tus pies, te doy todo mi amor
Trigueña de mis sueños, tú eres mi adoración
Pasé por la montaña y me traje este canto,
Por eso soy feliz por eso voy soñando (x2)
INTRO PIANO
Tu imagen vivirá prendida en mis recuerdos
Por que tú vas en mi, metida aquí muy dentro
Del cielo bajaré las estrellas, la luna
Por que eres para mi bella como ninguna
Del mar yo sacaré las más hermosas perlas
Para hacer un collar digno de tu belleza
Y verte sonreír como linda princesa (x2)
