Paloma Querida

Beloved Dove

Paloma Querida

For the day you came into my life,Por el día que llegaste a mi vida,
Beloved dove, I started to toast,Paloma querida, me puse a brindar,
And feeling a little tipsy,Y al sentirme un poquito tomado,
Thinking of your lips, I felt like singing.Pensando en tus labios, me dio por cantar.

I felt superior to anyone,Me sentí superior a cualquiera,
And I wanted to bring you a handful of stars,Y un puño de estrellas, te quise bajar,
And seeing that none reached you,Y al mirar, que ninguna alcanzaba,
I got so angry that I wanted to cry.Me dio tanta rabia, que quise llorar.

I don't know what my life is worth,Yo no se, lo que valga mi vida,
But I come to give it to you,Pero yo te la vengo a entregar,
I don't know if your love will accept it,Yo no se, si tu amor la reciba,
But I come to give it to you.Pero yo te la vengo a entregar.
