The love of my land

To love you with that madness
land (2X).
I shall gift you with the moon in a kiss
I shall caress you under the cold of the sierra (2x)
 
And I shall give you a night
of verses and lights
as is my own night
The shell of kisses
from which I drink by sips
your love and your poetry
 
I want you to carry with you this life of mine
I want you to be filled with the love of my land
I want you to carry with you this life of mine
I have you tied of the love of my land (2x)
 
So I can gift you with the smell of the fields
that only has the flower of my land (2x)
I shall steal from you in secret the night
I shall be yours forever, mi negra*(2x)
 
I shall be the fresh breeze
that plays in your skirts
and a sun of midday
The water, the current
the music you sing
 
And I shall give you a night
of cumbias** and lights
as is this night of mine
The shell of kisses
from which I drink in sips
your love and your poetry
 
I want you to carry with you this life of mine
I want you to be filled with the love of my land
I want you to carry with you this life of mine
I have you tied of the love of my land (2x)
 
*mi negra= endearment to a woman of dark skin.
