Paloma Querida

On the day you came into my life, Beloved dove, I started to toast
and feeling a little tipsy, thinking about your lips, I felt like singing
I felt superior to anyone and wanted to bring you a handful of stars
disappointed that none reached you, I got so angry, I wanted to cry.

I don't know the worth of my life but I come to give it to you
do not know if your love will accept it, but I come to leave it.

You found me on a dark path like a pilgrim without direction or faith
and the light of your divine eyes changed my luck to happiness and pleasure
eversince I feel like loving you with all the strength my soul gives me
eversince, beloved dove, I have exchanged my chest for a dovecote.

I don't know the worth of my life but I come to give it to you
do not know if your love will accept it, but I come to leave it.
