The Little Dove
(Chilean Tune)
How beautiful the little dove sang
in its nest,
in its nest,
opening its beak and wings
as if it were talking to me,
as if it were talking to me.
Yes, oh, oh, oh, my little dove
you have stolen my whole soul,
tweet, tweet, tweet,
you no longer sing, little dove,
you no longer sing, little dove.
Remember, little dove,
when you slept in my arms,
when you slept in my arms,
when you were thirsty,
you drank my tears,
you drank my tears.
Yes, oh, oh, oh, my little dove
you have stolen my whole soul,
tweet, tweet, tweet,
you no longer sing, little dove,
you no longer sing, little dove.
My little dove has already left
to the place where it was born,
to the place where it was born.
What seas lie in between
so I cannot go there,
so I cannot go there.
Yes, oh, oh, oh, my little dove
you have stolen my whole soul,
tweet, tweet, tweet,
the charming little dove,
the charming little dove.
