La Pequeña Venecia
Ricardo Montaner
The Little Venice
I will give you a cheerful house
At the foot of that hill
And may you have a spring and a river
Simon is dreaming
I will give you whatever you ask for
A country and a family
Fruits and a garden
I will give you the greening
Maturing your years
I will give you mother nature
Simon promising
A coffee in the morning
And children who love you
In the Little Venice
Where my affection reaches the edge
I wet your dress
Like morning dew
With the sunset sun
Where Bolivar began to dream
Where orchids are born
Behind a tree of promises
I want to make you fall in love
I will give you a beehive
In the olive tree's cup
And may you have sweet homemade honey
To give to Simon
A rose garden of butterflies
Perfuming your life
In the Little Venice
Where my affection reaches the edge
I wet your dress
Like morning dew
With the sunset sun
Where Bolivar began to dream
Where orchids are born
Behind a tree of promises
I want to make you fall in love
I give you a future
And the last corner of my country
My mortgaged thoughts and my poem
My love song and my good humor
And a gondola in Venice
Where my affection reaches the edge
I wet your dress
Like morning dew
With the sunset sun
Where Bolivar began to dream
Where orchids are born
Behind a tree of promises
I want to make you fall in love
