Translation

Lejana tierra mía

Faraway land of mine

Bajo tu cielo, bajo tu cielo,

Under your sky, under your sky,

Quiero morirme un día

I want to die one day

Con tu consuelo, con tu consuelo.

With your consolation, with your consolation.


Y oír el canto de oro

And hear the golden song

De tus campanas que siempre aoro,

Of your bells that I always yearn for,

No se si al contemplarte al regresar

I don't know if upon seeing you upon my return

Sabre reír o llorar.

I will know how to laugh or cry.


Silencio de mi aldea

Silence of my village

Que solo quiebra la serenata

That only breaks the serenade

De un ardiente Romeo

Of an ardent Romeo

Bajo una dulce luna de plata.

Under a sweet silver moon.


En un balcón florido

In a flowery balcony

Se oye el murmullo de un juramento,

You hear the murmur of a vow,

Que la brisa llevo con el rumor

That the breeze carried with the rumor

De otras cuitas de amor.

Of other love sorrows.


Siempre esta el balcón

Always there is the balcony

Con su flor y su sol,

With its flower and its sun,

Tu no estas, faltas tu

You are not there, you are missing

Oh, mi amor.

Oh, my love.


Lejana tierra mía

Faraway land of mine

De mis amores, como te nombro

Of my loves, how I mention you

En mis noches de insomnio

In my sleepless nights

Con las pupilas llenas de asombro...

With my pupils full of wonder...

Dime, estrellita mía,

Tell me, my little star,

Que no son vanas mis esperanzas,

That my hopes are not in vain,

Bien sabes tu que pronto he de volver A mi viejo querer.

You know well that soon I will return to my old love.
