Rosa Rosa
Ricardo Fort Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ay, Rosa, Rosa tan maravillosa
Como blanca diosa,
Como flor hermosa
Tu amor me condena
A la dulce pena de sufrir...

Ay, Rosa, Rosa dame de tu boca
Esa furia loca
Que mi amor provoca
Que me causa llanto
Por quererte tanto,
Sólo a ti.

Ay, Rosa, Rosa eres orgullosa
Y sin contemplarme
Tu fe se destroza
Mientras tanto yo
Agonizo por ti, ay!

Ay, Rosa, Rosa pide lo que quieras
Pero nunca pidas
Que mi amor se muera
Si algo ha de morir,
Moriré yo por ti.

Ay, Rosa dame todos tus sueños
Dueño de tu amor quiero ser
Ay, dame de tu ayer las heridas
Vida, junto a mí has de tener, ay!

Ay, Rosa, Rosa eres orgullosa
Y sin contemplarme
Tu fe se destroza
Mientras tanto yo
Agonizo por ti, ay!

Ay, Rosa, Rosa pide lo que quieras
Pero nunca pidas
Que mi amor se muera
Si algo ha de morir,
Moriré yo por ti.





Ay, Rosa! Ay, Rosa!
