Lied del amor verdadero
Language: Spanish (Español)
Available translation(s): ENG
Pura en tu fe coma un niño,
De tu cariño estoy cierto.
Y cada noche despierto
Temblando por tu cariño.
Hacen bien cuando a la muerte
Comparan el sueño oscuro.
Amor que duerme seguro,
Puede que no se despierte.

Song of True Love
Language: English  after the Spanish (Español)
Pure in your faith like a child,
Of your affection I am certain.
And every night I wake up
Trembling for your love.
They do well when they compare
Death to an obscure dream.
A love that sleeps safely [free from danger],
May not wake up.
