Lyrics
Español
Paquita, dans tes grands yeux pleins de douceur se reflète tout mon bonheur, et j'y vois passer de beaux songes, ignorant encore le mensonge. Paquita, tu m’as fait le don de ta vie. Je fais un serment qui nous lie au soleil de ce jour. Paquita, en te grisant de mes baisers j’ai senti ton corps frissonner et j’ai compris qu’enfin la flamme de l’amour avait pris ton âme Paquita, ô mon trésor, ô ma tendresse, mon cœur avec ivresse te dit: je suis à toi pour toujours.

Paquita, in your big eyes full of sweetness all my goodness is reflected, et j'y vois passer de beaux songes, ignorant yet of the message. Paquita, you have given me the gift of your life. Je fais un serment qui nous lie au soleil de ce jour. Paquita, en te grisant de mes baisers I felt your body shivering and I understood that at last the flame de l'amour avait pris ton âme Paquita, ô mon trésor, ô ma tendresse, my heart with tears tells you: je suis à toi pour toujours.
