Lyrics

Español

Una estrella que cayó del firmamento, hecha carne por milagro de la vida. ¡En momentos en que mi alma estaba herida! Con sus luces mi destino iluminó. Hoy no siento ya el dolor de mis heridas, todo es alegría, un canto al amor. Cuando el corazón... Cuando el corazón nos habla de un amor, revive la fe, florece la ilusión. Cuando el corazón recuerda a una mujer la vida es gozar y el vivir querer. Cuando el corazón palpita con ardor, todo es risa y luz, en todo hay emoción; canto a la esperanza, fe en el porvenir; amar a una mujer eso es vivir. Cascabeles de cristal hay en tu risa y caricia en el calor de tu mirada, en tu boca de coral está engarzada de un beso de ternura angelical. Una estrella que cayó del firmamento, inspiró mi verso, con su titilar.

English · machine translation

A star that fell from the firmament, made flesh by the miracle of life. In moments when my soul was wounded! With its lights it illuminated my destiny. Today I no longer feel the pain of my wounds, all is joy, a song of love. When the heart... When the heart speaks to us of a love, faith revives, illusion blooms. When the heart remembers a woman life is to enjoy and living is to love. When the heart beats with ardor, everything is laughter and light, in everything there is emotion; song to hope, faith in the future; to love a woman is to live. There are crystal bells in your laughter and caress in the warmth of your gaze, in your coral mouth is set of a kiss of angelic tenderness. A star that fell from the firmament inspired my verse, with its twinkling.
