If I could have one wish
Si pudiera tener un deseo
If I could be granted this
Si se me pudiera conceder esto
I know just what I'd do
Sé exactamente qué haría
I would unwind the world
Desenredaría el mundo
Go back to that boy and girl
Regresaría a ese niño y esa niña
And sing a song of you
Y cantaría una canción de ti
Under the banyan tree, there by the silver sea
Bajo el árbol de banyan, allí junto al mar plateado
We would be singing, ooh, ooh, ooh
Estaríamos cantando, ooh, ooh, ooh
Over the twilight blue, the eyes that I stared into
Sobre el crepúsculo azul, los ojos en los que miré
They shine and they sing a song of you, you, of you
Brillan y cantan una canción de ti, de ti, de ti
I wonder where you are
If in your secret heart you still hear that melody
Go on, and close your eyes
Lay down to dream tonight
You know where I'll be, yeah
Under the banyan tree, there by the silver sea
We would be singing, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
Over the twilight blue, the eyes that I stared into
They shine and they sing a song of you, you, of you
I'd give it all to hear that song of you
Over the twilight blue, the eyes that I stared into
They shine and they sing a song of you, you, you, of you
