| | DULCE AMOR (SWEET LOVE) Lyrics Artist(Band):Gloria Estefan
Idioms can be especially difficult to translate; often even in the same language they can have very different meanings. An interesting {and humorous} example is “knock up”. In most parts of North America if you said, “He knocked her up”, it would mean he got her pregnant. In Britain however, it means he woke her up. My desire in translating ‘Dulce Amor’; is to proffer a reasonable interpretation of what the author intended one to understand and feel when one listens to the song. I desire any with conflicting points of view to convey them to me. Ultimately the author of any song must be the final arbiter of it’s meaning. Todas las noches cuando miro al cielo Every night when I look at the sky Brillan tus ojos como dos luceros Your eyes sparkle like two bright stars Ojos tan puros como el agua clara Eyes as pure as crystal clear water Que calma las heridas That calms the wounds De mi pobre corazón. Of my impoverished {or destitute} heart Te llevo anclado a mi pensamiento You are always anchoured in my thoughts {alternative} You anchour my thoughts Paloma blanca que da el amor White dove of love Amor que riega las ilusiones Love that floods my illusions Como arroyito en el alma Like a brook in the soul Aurora fresca de la mañana Cool first Light of dawn Tibia caricia, rayo de sol A warm caress, a ray of sunlight ----------------------- CORO: Va saliendo la luna The moon is rising Reflejada en el río Reflected in the river (x2) Ay que buena fortuna Oh what good fortune Es tenerte amor mío It is to have you my love (x2) --------------- Es el perfume que me dan tus besos It’s the perfume that your kisses give me Dulce fragancia que en mi pecho anida Sweet fragrance that nests within my heart Pasion que brota como blanca espuma Passion that breaks like surf Cuando mueren al viento las olas del mar When the waves of the sea die in the wind Te llevo escrito en mi firmamento You written in my being {alternative} You are written in my universe Suave caricia que da el amor The soft caress love gives Amor que riega las ilusiones Love that waters my illusions Como arroyito en el alma Like a brook in the soul Aurora fresca de la mañana Cool first Light of dawn Tibia caricia, rayo de sol A warm caress, a ray of sunlight --------------------- CORO: Va saliendo la luna The moon is rising Reflejada en el río Reflected in the river (x2) Ay que buena fortuna Oh what good fortune Es tenerte amor mío It is to have you my love (x2) ---------------------------- Eres canción que nace con el viento You are a song that is born with the wind Inspiración cuando te doy un verso Inspiration when I sing you a verse Eres la brisa que me alegra el alma You are the breeze that gladdens my soul Que lleva la fragancia de tu dulce amor That carries the fragrance of your sweet love Te llevo atado a mi pensamiento You are bound to my thoughts Paloma blanca que da el amor The white dove of love Amor que riega las ilusiones Love that floods my illusions Como arroyito en el alma Like a brook in the soul Aurora fresca de la mañana Cool first Light of dawn Tibia caricia, rayo de sol A warm caress, a ray of sunlight -------------------- CORO: Va saliendo la luna The moon is rising Reflejada en el río Reflected in the river (x2) Ay que buena fortuna Oh what good fortune Es tenerte amor mío It is to have you my love (x2) -------------------- CORO: Va saliendo la luna The moon is rising Reflejada en el río Reflected in the river (x2) Ay que buena fortuna Oh what good fortune Es tenerte amor mío It is to have you my love (x2) If you find some error in DULCE AMOR (SWEET LOVE) Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?
