Serenata
Los Ribereños Paraguayos
Serenade
Wake up, virgin, wake up
And come to your window
Where my soul's prisoner
Awaits you behind bars
Divine woman, wake up
The dawn is drawing near
Come listen to the laments
Moaning from my guitar
In you, my fragrant rose
The flower from heaven bloomed
And your grace and charm
Are my longing, my joy, and my pain
Come, for today is spring
Full of jasmine flowers
The night of my sorrows
Is filled with light because of you
Distant sleeping voices
I bring in my song of the sun
To offer, my love
Alongside your dream of love
I come flying to your place
On the wings of my song
I want to lay at your altars
To offer my adoration
