Un placer

Linda mariposa
tú eres mi alegría
y tus colores de rosa
te hacen tan hermosa
que en el alma mía
tu imagen quedó.

Por eso a tu reja
hoy vengo a cantarte,
para decirte, mi diosa,
que eres muy hermosa
y no puedo olvidarte
que antes de dejarte
prefiero la muerte
que sólo con verte
es para mí un placer.

Sin tu amor ya no puedo vivr.
¡Oh! ven pronto no me hagas penar.
De tus labios yo quiero sentir
el placer que se siente al besar.
Y por eso en mi canto te ruego
que apagues el fuego
que hay dentro de mí.

Oye amada mía
tuyo es mi querer,
que tuya es el alma mía
toda mi poesía
mis alegres días,
hermosa mujer.

Sale a tu ventana
que quiero admirarte.
Sale mi rosa temprana,
hermosa galana,
que yo quiero hablarte
y quiero robarte
tu querer que es santo
porque te amo tanto
que no puedo más.

Y si el destino
de ti me separa
nunca podre ser feliz
y antes prefiero morir.
Porque tu cariño
es mi vida entera.
Tu has de ser la postrera,
la dulce compañera que ayer soñé.

English translation

Beautiful butterfly
you are my joy
and your rose colors
make you so beautiful
that in my soul
your image remained.

That's why I come to your grille
today I come to sing to you,
to tell you, my goddess,
that you are very beautiful
and I cannot forget you
that before leaving you
I prefer death
that just seeing you
is a pleasure for me.

Without your love I can no longer live.
Oh, come quickly, don't make me suffer.
From your lips I want to feel
the pleasure of kissing.
And that's why in my song I beg you
to extinguish the fire
that is within me.

Listen my beloved
my love is yours,
that mine soul is yours
all my poetry
my joyful days,
beautiful woman.

Go out to your window
I want to admire you.
My early rose comes out,
beautiful gallant,
I want to talk to you
and I want to steal from you
your love that is holy
because I love you so much
that I can't do it anymore.

And if destiny
separates me from you
I can never be happy
and I'd rather die first.
Because your love
is my whole life.
You have to be the last one,
the sweet companion I dreamed of yesterday.
