Tu vieja ventana [English translation]

I came to your old window, my darling,

to offer you, sweetheart, this love song.

because I want you to know that I love you, my glory,

and I feel you beating in my faithful heart.

I would like you, girl, to understand

the loyal affection I feel for you,

that I spend the hours thinking,

and that's the reason why I don't even sleep.

I have brought, from the country, these flowers that

yesterday, my hands cut, with desire for you,

because I want to see you happy, girl,

and show you that I would die for you.

If you were an interpreter, then

you would feel, same as I do,

a love so rare and so sweet

that, if it didn't come true, an inferno it would be.

Show your sweet face and don't make me suffer,

I beg you, my love, for heaven's sake,

'cause without seen you, I would be able to die

of affection, perhaps, or of strange grief,

The guilty ones have been your eyes.

and your lips were their accomplices,

that they have me like a slave,

and I am, to say so, your faithful prisoner.
