Lyrics

Lydia Mendoza - El lirio

Hay un lirio que el tiempo lo consume.
Hay una fuente que lo hace enverdecer.
Hay un lirio que el tiempo lo consume.
Hay una fuente que lo hace enverdecer.
Tú eres el lirio y dame tu perfume.
Yo soy la fuente y déjame correr. Hay un ave que gime noche y día
que solo un ángel la pueda consolar.
Hay un ave que gime noche y día
que solo un ángel la pueda consolar.
Tú eres el ángel mi dulce amada mía.
Yo soy el ave y déjame volar. Yo como errante y triste peregrino.Lydia Mendoza - El lirio - http://motolyrics.com/lydia-mendoza/el-lirio-lyrics-english-translation.html
Solo la luna me da su resplandor.
Yo como errante y triste peregrino.
Solo la luna me da su resplandor.
Tú eres la luna que alumbra mi camino,
y yo seré peregrino de tu amor. Hace un año, recuerdas vida mía,
en que yo fuí tu primer adorado.
Hace un año, recuerdas vida mía,
en que yo fuí tu primer adorado.
Yo te daría mi sangre de rodillas
porque tú fueras mi perfumada flor. Submitter's comments:  The Youtube video is not very good, but it is the best one I could find.

Lydia Mendoza - The Lily (English translation)

There is a lily that time consumes.
There is a fountain that keeps it green.
There is a lily that time consumes.
There is a fountain that keeps it green.
You are the lily and give me your perfume.
I am the fountain, and let me flow.

There is a bird that wails night and day
that only an angel can console.
There is a bird that wails night and day
that only an angel can console.
You are the angel, my sweet love.
I'm that bird, and let me fly.

I'm like a wandering and sad pilgrim.Lydia Mendoza - El lirio - http://motolyrics.com/lydia-mendoza/el-lirio-lyrics-english-translation.html
Only the moon shines on me.
I'm like a wandering and sad pilgrim.
Only the moon shines on me.
You are the moon that lights my way,
and I shall be the pilgrim of your love.

Just a year ago, remember my love,
I was your first admirer.
Just a year ago, remember my love,
I was your first admirer.
I would give you my blood on my knees
because you would be my perfumed flower.
