Desdeñosa

Disdainful

Esas tus miradas de fulgor extraño

Those glances of yours, full of strange brilliance,

Esa tu sonrisa de color de rosa

that rose coloured smile of yours,

Siempre me fascinan aunque me hacen daño

they’ve been always fascinating me, even though they hurt me,

Porque eres muy linda pero desdeñosa

‘cause you’re very sweet, but also disdainful.

Esas tus miradas de fulgor extraño

Those glances of yours, full of strange brilliance,

Esa tu sonrisa de color de rosa

that rose coloured smile of yours,

Siempre me fascinan aunque me hacen daño

they’ve been always fascinating me, even though they hurt me,

Porque eres muy linda pero desdeñosa

‘cause you’re very sweet, but also disdainful.

Brindame el encanto de tus bellos ojos

Give me the charm of your beautiful eyes,

El sensual embrujo que en ti se adivina

the sensual bewitchment that one can predict in you,

Para que en mi vida tan llena de abrojos

so that in my life, so full of thistles,

Seas como una estrella que a mi alma ilumina

you’ll be a star that illuminates my soul.

Brindame el encanto de tus bellos ojos

Give me the charm of your beautiful eyes,

El sensual embrujo que en ti se adivina

the sensual bewitchment that one can predict in you,

Para que en mi vida tan llena de abrojos

so that in my life, so full of thistles,

Seas como una estrella que a mi alma ilumina

you’ll be a star that illuminates my soul.
