Lyrics
Español
Quiéreme, criollita linda Que por tus encantos, Tengo envidia al sol y al ave Que pasa volando. Yo quisiera ser la brisa Que va acariciando, Suavemente Tu dulce faz. Quiéreme, criollita linda Que por tus amores, A tus pies, eternamente Me postraría. Dulcemente, en el santuario De mi pecho haría, Para que reines en él Diosa de mi amor. Criolla linda, no me hagás sufrir Que mi alma no descansará, Hasta el día que al altar te lleve Viviré implorando tu querer, mi bien. Criolla linda, no debes desconfiar Te he querido desde el día Que te vi por vez primera, Mi florcita tempranera Por tu amor, lucharé hasta el fin.
English · machine translation
Love me, criollita linda Because of your charms, I'm envious of the sun and the bird That flies by. I would like to be the breeze That caresses me, Gently Your sweet face. Love me, criollita linda That for your loves, At your feet, eternally I would prostrate myself. Sweetly, in the sanctuary Of my breast I would make, That thou mayest reign therein Goddess of my love. Criolla linda, don't make me suffer That my soul will not rest, Until the day I take you to the altar I will live imploring your love, my good. Criolla linda, you mustn't mistrust me I have loved you since the day That I saw you for the first time, My little early flower For your love, I will fight to the end.
