Limeña

Limeña who has a soul of traditionLimeña que tienes alma de tradición
Clacking the castanets of your heelRepicar las castañuelas de tu tacón
Step by step you walk, along the pathPasito a paso vas caminando, por la vereda
That sings, as if it were a droneQue va entonando, como si fuera un bordón
Marinera's beats, its cajónCompases de Marinera su cajón

Little mouth of caramel, skin of silkBoquita de caramelo cutis de seda
Magnolia that has escaped from the poplar groveMagnolia que se ha escapado de la alameda
In your smile there's a handkerchiefEn tu sonrisa hay un pañuelo
That in love reaches the skyQue enamorado llega hasta el cielo
Scented with Jasmineperfumado de Jazmín
