Josefina
Los Manseros Santiagueños
Josefina
You know well Josefina that upon seeing your image
I swore to love you forever with all my heart
And I found myself captivated from that moment
By your precious mouth that captured my love
Your black eyes are like morning beacons
Lighting my path, you must also know
Morning star with diamond rays
Shining with splendor on a beautiful dawn
Beautiful beloved woman, how I would like to kiss
That honeyed mouth of yours that is a rich fountain
And that black mole you have on your cheek
Which is a marvel that enchants me to behold
Your rosy face like a rose petal
Gives a lively charm to your magical mole
And your kind smile, my sovereign nymph
Is a balm that heals my sorrows endlessly
May God unite our hearts tomorrow
To shape our destiny with much happiness
Then Josefina, I will proudly sing
My most beautiful verses for all eternity
Beautiful beloved woman, how I would like to kiss
That mouth of yours like a thousand fountains
And that black mole you have on your cheek
Which is a marvel that enchants me to behold
