[English]

Blessed is the place

And the reason we're there

Blessed is the coincidence

...

Blessed is the clock

That brought us there on time

Blessed is your presence

Blessed God for crossing our paths

On the way

And for taking away this loneliness

From my destiny

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your gaze

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your soulful gaze

...

Blessed are the eyes that avoided me

Pretending disdain, ignoring me

And suddenly you hold my gaze

Daram-diri, daram-diriri

Blessed God for crossing our paths

On the way

And for taking away this loneliness

From my destiny

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your gaze

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your soulful gaze, oh

Divine glory of this luck, of good judgment

And of finding you right there, in the middle of the road

Glory to the heavens for finding you now

To bring my loneliness to you and share our destiny

In the same destiny (Hey!)

...

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your gaze

Blessed is the light

Blessed is the light in your soulful gaze

Blessed gaze, oh-oh

Blessed gaze from the soul (Your gaze, oh-oh)

Blessed, blessed, blessed is this gaze

Blessed is your soul and blessed is your light (Your gaze, oh-oh)

Oh, I say: your light is so blessed

Love, love (And your gaze, oh-oh)

Blessed is the clock and blessed is the place

Blessed are your kisses near the sea (And your gaze, oh-oh)

Love, love

How blessed is your gaze!

Your gaze, love

...

[Spanish]

Bendito el lugar

Y el motivo de estar ahí

Bendita la coincidencia

Bendito el reloj

Que nos puso puntual ahí

Bendita sea tu presencia

Bendito Dios por encontrarnos

En el camino

Y de quitarme esta soledad

De mi destino

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada desde el alma

Benditos ojos que me esquivaban

Simulaban desdén que me ignoraban

Y de repente sostienes la mirada

Daram-diri, daram-diriri

Bendito Dios por encontrarnos

En el camino

Y de quitarme esta soledad

De mi destino

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada, oh

Gloria divina de esta suerte, del buen tino

Y de encontrarte justo ahí, en medio del camino

Gloria al cielo de encontrarte ahora

Llevarte mi soledad y coincidir en mi destino

En el mismo destino (¡Épale!)

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Bendita la luz

Bendita la luz de tu mirada

Bendita mirada, oh-oh

Bendita mirada desde el alma (Tu mirada, oh-oh)

Bendita, bendita, bendita mirada

Bendita tu alma y bendita tu luz (Tu mirada, oh-oh)

Oh, lo, lo digo: es tan bendita tu luz

Amor, amor (Y tu mirada, oh-oh)

Bendito el reloj y bendito el lugar

Benditos tus besos cerquita del mar (Y tu mirada, oh-oh)

Amor, amor

¡Qué bendita tu mirada!

Tu mirada, amor
