Mi Buenaventura

Beautiful seaside port, my good fortune
Where the pure breeze is always in the air
Beautiful seaside port, my good fortune
Where the pure breeze is always in the air

Beautiful port, precious, surrounded by the sea
Beautiful port, precious, surrounded by the sea
Your mornings are as lovely and pure as crystal
Your mornings are as lovely and pure as crystal

Whenever I feel down in my hometown
I look at your pretty sky and feel relieved
Whenever I feel down in my hometown
I look at your pretty sky and feel relieved

The sparkling waves come and kiss you
The sparkling waves come and kiss you
And with a gentle sound, they come and go
And with a gentle sound, they come and go

Just like through your streets
I saw a dark-skinned girl pass by
A beloved local girl
I won’t find another like her

And in my nights of sadness
My troubles will be eased
While the full moon lit our way as we passed
While the full moon lit our way as we passed

The sparkling waves come and kiss you
The sparkling waves come and kiss you
And with a gentle sound, they come and go
And with a gentle sound, they come and go

How long will I put up with you
And keep on putting up with you?
How long will I put up with you
And keep on putting up with you?

Tomorrow your mom says
That I’m always hitting you
Tomorrow your mom says
That I’m always hitting you

My sweetie

My little darling

Eagles flying high
With the wind in their beaks
Eagles flying high
With the wind in their beaks

Take this little paper
Where my thoughts are written
Take this little paper
Where my thoughts are written

My sweetie
