Habanera Bonita
Manolo Escobar
Beautiful Habanera
Your hair
Your silky hair
Kisses my hands
Like velvet
Your mouth
Your strawberry mouth
Is so sweet, girl
Like candy
Your eyes
Of a deep blue
Look like two lakes
Of fire and glass
And your body
Of wicker and rose
Looks like a goddess
Gentle and real
Habanera
Habanera, what have you given me?
By God, I can't
I can't live without your love anymore
It's your love sweet poison
For my sorrow and my joy
It makes me bad and it makes me good
And without it, I don't know what I would do
In your arms, my love
I put my life and my love
Like dewdrops
Like dewdrops
My love
In the chalice of a flower
