Fina Estampa [English translation]

A joyous little path with moonlight or sunlight

Lying like a ribbon with its sides of red

Red of geraniums and blushing smiles

Red of carnations and cheeks in bloom

Perfumed by magnolia sprinkled with early morning dew

The little path smiles when your foot caresses it*

And the cuculi** laughs and the window shakes

When your fine aspect takes a walk along that path

Fine aspect, gentleman

Gentleman of fine aspect

A bright star that would smile under a hat

Would not smile more beautiful

Nor shine more, gentleman

And in your walking, walking, the pavement shines when you walk, walk

It takes you near the hallways and to the enchanted patios

It takes you near the small plazas and to the dreamed loves

Little path that bills and coos with embroidered taffetas

Heel of a silk sandal and dapper saddles

It is a joyous road with moonlight or sunlight

That I must travel singing to see if I can overtake you

Fine aspect gentleman who would be able to preserve you

Fine aspect, gentleman

Gentleman of fine aspect

A bright star that would smile under a hat

Would not smile more beautiful

Nor shine more, gentleman

And in your walking, walking, the pavement shines when you walk, walk
