De amor en los hierros de tu reja

Diciéndome así con su dulce canción
Telling me so with its sweet song

Beautiful little poppy
Será siempre mi alma tuya sola
My soul will always belong to you alone
Yo te quiero, amada niña mía
I love you, my beloved girl
Igual que ama la flor la luz del día
Just as a flower loves the light of day
