Lyrics

Español

Por esta senda donde un bello ruiseñor cantaba alegre sobre un viejo ventanal, por esta senda yo he volcado, de mi infancia las arrogancias de mis años de esplendor. Aquí, del canto de las brisas, aprendí las armonías de una dicha singular, y el alba radiante con su deslumbrante corola de luces me enseñó a adorar. Bella senda donde mi alma aprendió a querer, donde con mis juegos placenteros pasé los años primeros que ya no pueden volver. Felices años que adoraba con vehemencia bajo el sol de la inocencia que me hacía enternecer. Soy un jilguero que va volando, volando, y su canto va dejando con infinito fervor, pues en tu senda que está llena de esplendores, con las más fragantes flores hice mi nido de amor. En un recodo de tu senda está mi hogar, donde mi amada, con dulcísima emoción, dice a la vida la belleza que la inunda, con las palabras que modula en su canción. Senda florida que jamás olvidaré; bendita senda donde las dichas bebí, y que has perfumado el goce anhelado de verme inundado de azul porvenir.

English · machine translation

Along this path where a beautiful nightingale sang happily over an old window, along this path I have poured from my childhood the arrogance of my years of splendor. Here, from the song of the breezes, I learned the harmonies of a singular joy, and the radiant dawn with its dazzling corolla of lights taught me to adore. Beautiful path where my soul learned to love, where with my pleasant games I spent the first years that can never come back. Happy years that I adored with vehemence under the sun of innocence that made me tender. I am a goldfinch that flies, flying, and its song is leaving with infinite fervor, for on your path that is full of splendors, with the most fragrant flowers I made my nest of love. In a bend of your path is my home, where my beloved, with sweetest emotion, tells life the beauty that floods it, with the words she modulates in her song. Flowery path that I will never forget; Blessed path where I drank the joys, and that you have perfumed the longed-for joy of seeing me flooded with a blue future.
