Cielito Lindo

by Stevie ray Vaughan

De la Sierra Morena,
Cielito lindo, vienen bajando,
Un par de ojitos negros,
Cielito lindo, de contrabando.
Estribillo:
Ay, ay, ay, ay,
Canta y no llores,
Porque cantando se alegran,
Cielito lindo, los corazones.
Pájaro que abandona,
Cielito lindo, su primer nido,
Si lo encuentra ocupado,
Cielito lindo, bien merecido.
(Estribillo)
Ese lunar que tienes,
Cielito lindo, junto a la boca,
No se lo des a nadie,
Cielito lindo, que a mí me toca.
(Estribillo)
Si tu boquita morena,
Fuera de azúcar, fuera de azúcar,
Yo me lo pasaría,
Cielito lindo, chupa que chupa.
(Estribillo)
De tu casa a la mía,
Cielito lindo, no hay más que un paso,
Antes que venga tu madre,
Cielito lindo, dame un abrazo.
(Estribillo)
Una flecha en el aire,
Cielito lindo, lanzó Cupido,
Una flecha en el aire,
Cielito lindo, que a mí me ha herido.
(Estribillo)
English Translation
Through mounds of hair,
heavenly one, a dark pair of eyes
(that could steal a man's heart)
lower as they approach.
Refrain:
Ay, ay, ay, ay,
sing and don't cry,
for hearts are happy, heavenly one,
when singing.
If a bird abandons his nest,
heavenly one,
then finds it occupied by another,
that first bird got what he deserved.
(Refrain)
Don't give away that beauty mark
that you have next to your mouth,
heavenly one, to just anybody.
Share all your beauty with me.
(Refrain)
If your sweet mouth
were made of sugar,
I would spend my time, heavenly one,
on a sugar high.
(Refrain)
Your house is only steps away from mine,
heavenly one.
So before your mother shows up,
give me a hug.
(Refrain)
Cupid shot an arrow
into the air,
heavenly one,
and that arrow struck me.
(Refrain)
