Fina Estampa
Juan Diego Florez
Fine Print
A cheerful little path
With moonlight or sunlight
Stretched like a ribbon
With its sides blushing
Blush of geraniums
And blushing smiles
Blush of carnations
And cheeks in bloom
Perfumed with magnolia
Sprinkled with morning dew
The little path smiles
When your skin caresses it
And the poplar tree laughs
And the window shakes
When through that path
Your fine print strolls
Fine print, gentleman
Gentleman of fine print
A star that would smile
Under a hat
No one would smile more beautifully
Or shine more, gentleman
In your walk, walk
The sidewalk shines
As you walk
It takes you to the doorways
And to the enchanted courtyards
It takes you to the small squares
And to the dreamed loves
A path that lulls
With embroidered taffeta
Heel of silk shoe
And starched ruffles
It's a cheerful little path
With moonlight or sunlight
That I will walk singing
In case I can reach you
Fine print gentleman
Who could keep you
Fine print, gentleman
Gentleman of fine print
A star that would smile
Under a hat
No one would smile more beautifully
Or shine more, gentleman
In your walk, walk
The sidewalk shines
As you walk
