Fina Estampa

Fine Print

Fina Estampa

A cheerful little pathUna veredita alegre
With moonlight or sunlightCon luz de luna o de sol
Stretched like a ribbonTendida como una cinta
With its sides blushingCon sus lados de arrebol
Blush of geraniumsArrebol de los geranios
And blushing smilesY sonrisas con rubor
Blush of carnationsArrebol de los claveles
And cheeks in bloomY las mejillas en flor

Perfumed with magnoliaPerfumada de magnolia
Sprinkled with morning dewRociada de mañanita
The little path smilesLa veredita sonríe
When your skin caresses itCuando tu piel la acaricia
And the poplar tree laughsY la populi se ríe
And the window shakesY la ventana se agita
When through that pathCuándo por esa vereda
Your fine print strollsTu fina estampa pasea

Fine print, gentlemanFina estampa, caballero
Gentleman of fine printCaballero de fina estampa
A star that would smileUn lucero que sonriera
Under a hatBajo un sombrero
No one would smile more beautifullyNo sonriere más hermoso
Or shine more, gentlemanNi más luciera, caballero
In your walk, walkEn tu andar, andar
The sidewalk shinesReluce la acera
As you walkAl andar andar

It takes you to the doorwaysTe lleva hacia los zaguanes
And to the enchanted courtyardsY a los patios encantados
It takes you to the small squaresTe lleva hacia las plazuelas
And to the dreamed lovesY a los amores soñados
A path that lullsVeredita que se arrulla
With embroidered taffetaCon tafetanes bordados
Heel of silk shoeTacón de chapín de seda
And starched rufflesY justes almidonados

It's a cheerful little pathEs un caminito alegre
With moonlight or sunlightCon luz de luna o de sol
That I will walk singingQue he de recorrer cantando
In case I can reach youPor si te puede alcanzar
Fine print gentlemanFina estampa caballero
Who could keep youQuien te pudiera guardar
