Índia [English translation]

Indian girl, your shoulder-length hair

As dark as a moonless night

Your rose-like lips smiling at me

The sweet affection in your eyes.

Dusky Indian girl, I want to kiss you

Indian Tupi* girl

With the fragrance of a flower

Come, I want to give you

All my love.

When I have to travel far away

And the time comes to say farewell

Stay in my arms just a moment more

And let us kiss.

Indian girl, I’ll miss the happiness you gave me

Indian girl, a picture of you

Will always be with me

In my heart, a flower of my dear Paraguay.
