Lied del secreto dichoso
Language: Spanish (Español)
Our translations: ENG
Corazón que bien se da, Tiene que darse callado, Sin que el mismo objeto amado Llegue a saberlo quizá. Que ni un suspiro indiscreto Nuestros firmes labios abra. Que la más dulce palabra Muera en dichoso secreto. Todo calla alrededor. Y la noche, sobre el mundo, Se embellece en el profundo Misterio de nuestro amor.
