[English]

My love, your beloved face

You don’t know how to keep love’s secrets

You’ve already told me I’m in bliss

of your intimacy

No need to tell me you love me

Don’t drive me crazy with this truth

Don’t say it, don’t make me cry

of happiness

How much envy will arise

How many eyes will look at us

The joy of all my hours

I prefer to spend them in intimacy

I forgot to tell you I love you

With all the strength my soul gives me

Those who have never loved should never speak

that ever lived

How much envy will arise

How many eyes will look at us

The joy of all my hours

I prefer to spend them in intimacy

I forgot to tell you I love you

With all the strength my soul gives me

Those who have never loved should never speak

that ever lived

[Spanish]

Amor mío, tu rostro querido

No sabe guardar secretos de amor

Ya me dijo que estoy en la gloria

de tu intimidad

No hace falta decir que me quieres

No me vuelvas loco con esta verdad

No lo digas no me hagas llorar

de felicidad

Cuánta envidia se va a despertar

Cuántos ojos nos van a mirar

La alegría de todas mis horas

Prefiero pasarlas en la intimidad

Olvidaba decir que te amo

Con todas las fuerzas que el alma me da

Quien no ha amado que no diga nunca

que vivió jamás

Cuánta envidia se va a despertar

Cuántos ojos nos van a mirar

La alegría de todas mis horas

Prefiero pasarlas en la intimidad

Olvidaba decir que te amo

Con todas las fuerzas que el alma me da

Quien no ha amado que no diga nunca

que vivió jamás
