Tú me dices que tu corazón
You tell me that your heart
Ha sufrido tanto que
Has suffered so much that
No le queda la ilusión
It has no hope left
Para amar otra vez
To love once more
Que has llorado sin consuelo
That you've cried without comfort
Que no encuentras la razón
That you can't find the reason
Pero yo te digo, lo viejo pasó, cariño
But I tell you, the old is gone, darling
Lo que viene es mucho mejor
What’s coming is so much better
Tú no sabes que la luna no se queda sola
You don't know that the moon doesn't stay alone
Se alegra en un mar de olas y le dice a la amapola
It rejoices in a sea of waves and speaks to the poppy
Que espera su cariñito como la güira espera tambora
That waits for its little love like the güira waits for the drum
Que todo tiene su hora, debajo del sol naciente
For everything has its time, beneath the rising sun
Espera tu amor bendito, de nada vale ser impaciente, ay no, ay no
Your blessed love waits, being impatient is of no use, oh no, oh no
Me preguntas cómo yo lo sé
You ask me how I know
Que te dé una explicación
To give you an explanation
Pero con el buen amor
But with true love
Solo hay que creer
You just have to believe
Con tu traje de alegría
In your suit of joy
Vístete con mi canción
Dress yourself in my song
Y recuerda siempre, lo viejo pasó, cariño
And always remember, the old has passed, my dear
Lo que viene es mucho mejor
What’s coming is so much better
Tú no sabes que la luna no se queda sola
You don’t know that the moon never stays alone
Se alegra en un mar de olas, y le dice a la amapola
It rejoices in a sea of waves, and tells the poppy
Que espera su cariñito como la güira espera tambora
That it waits for its darling like the güira waits for the drum
Que todo tiene su hora, debajo del sol naciente
That everything has its time, beneath the rising sun
Espera tu amor bendito, de nada vale ser impaciente
Your blessed love awaits, being impatient is of no use
El mar rodeado de estrellas, el canto de las palmeras
The sea surrounded by stars, the song of the palm trees
La risa del horizonte y la lluvia, todos son para ti
The laughter of the horizon and the rain, they’re all for you
El rojo de las cayenas y el cielo de nubes bellas
The red of the cayennes and the sky of beautiful clouds
Fueron hechos para ti, son para ti, oye
They were made for you, they are for you, hey
Se alegra en un mar de olas, y le dice a la amapola
It rejoices in a sea of waves, and tells the poppy
Que espera su cariñito como la güira espera tambora
That it waits for its darling like the güira waits for the drum
Que todo tiene su hora (como tambora), debajo del sol naciente (tú ve)
That everything has its time (like the drum), under the rising sun (you see)
Espera tu amor bendito, de nada vale ser impaciente, ay no
Wait for your blessed love, it’s no use being impatient, oh no
Se alegra en un mar de olas, y le dice a la amapola
It rejoices in a sea of waves, and tells the poppy
Que espera su cariñito como la güira espera tambora
That it waits for its darling like the güira waits for the drum
Que todo tiene su hora (tú ve), debajo del sol naciente
That everything has its time (you see), under the rising sun
Ya viene tu amor bendito, de nada vale ser impaciente, ay no
Your blessed love is coming, it’s no use being impatient, oh no
Se alegra en un mar de olas, y le dice a la amapola
It rejoices in a sea of waves, and tells the poppy
Que espera su cariñito como la güira espera tambora
That it waits for its darling like the güira waits for the drum
Que todo tiene su hora, debajo del sol naciente
For everything there is a time, beneath the rising sun
Ya viene tu amor bendito, de nada vale ser impaciente, ay no
Your blessed love is coming, it's pointless to be impatient, oh no
Si es un regalo del Señor
If it's a gift from the Lord
Ser impaciente, ay no
To be impatient, oh no
Si es un regalo del Señor
If it's a gift from the Lord
