Two doves

Dos palomitas

Yesterday I saw two dovesAyer vide conversare
conversing in the air,dos palomitas por el aire,
so close to me they passedtan cerca de mí pasaron
that I stopped to talk to them.que me paré para hablarles.

I saw them and askedLas vide y les pregunté
where they were going to get married,adónde van a casarse,
tell me on which sideque me digan en qué lao
the tranquilities are.están las tranquilidades.

They answered me softlyMe respondieron bajito
so no one would know:pa'que no supiera naiden:
there's nothing betterno hay nadita mejor
than flying through the air.que el volare por los aires.

Yesterday I saw two dovesAyer vide conversare
conversing in the air,dos palomitas en el aire,
I saw them and from the heartlas vide y del corazón
two sighs escaped me.dos suspiros se me salen.
