Lyrics
Español
Escucha, mujer hermosa De mi guitarra, las quejas, Que se enredan en tus rejas Como madreselva en flor. Mañana cuando despiertes Levántate a recogerlas, Que son cascadas de perlas Del manantial de mi amor. Yo quiero en mis cantares Brindarte el alma mía, Mi corazón ardiente Mi vida y mi ilusión. Y entre las notas tristes De mi melancolía, Desparramar suspiros De eterna adoración. Las brisas de la noche Mitigan mi quebranto, Escucha mis plegarias Ten compasión de mí, Que mientras tú dormitas Yo riego con mi llanto, Las cuerdas de mi lira Que lloran para ti... Al despedirme, hada blanca Dejo al pie de tu ventana, Mi trova, la más galana Empapada de arrebol. Y en ella te dejo el alma Mi cariño, el más ferviente, Que caerá sobre tu frente Como una lluvia de sol.

Listen, beautiful woman From my guitar, the complaints That are entangled in your bars Like honeysuckle in bloom. Tomorrow when you wake up Get up to pick them up, Which are cascades of pearls From the spring of my love. I want in my songs To offer you my soul, My burning heart My life and my illusion. And among the sad notes Of my melancholy, To scatter sighs Of eternal adoration. The night breezes Mitigate my brokenness, Hear my prayers Have mercy on me, That while you slumber I water with my weeping, The strings of my lyre That weep for you... As I bid you farewell, white fairy I leave at the foot of your window, My trova, the most gallant Drenched with the glow. And in it I leave you my soul My affection, the most fervent, That will fall on your forehead Like a rain of sunshine.
