Juan Luis Guerra - Amapola (English translation)

English

Translation

Poppy

Open the pages of the wind my darling.

Put a saddle on a river

and ride, and if it makes you cold, then wrap yourself up

with the skin of the stars,

for a pillow, the full moon my darling,

for your dreams, my love.

And a poppy told me yesterday

that I'm going to see you, that I'm going to see you,

and a rainbow painted my skin

so I could wake up with you.

Close the night and the day my darling

so that everything can be ours

and a great escape of kisses

will land on your lips,

and let the singing of the roses, my darling,

tell you how much I love you.

And a poppy told me yesterday

that I'm going to see you, that I'm going to see you,

and a rainbow painted my skin

so I could wake up with you.

And a poppy told me yesterday

that I'm going to see you, that I'm going to see you,

and a rainbow painted my skin

so I could wake up with you...

arcoiris as a noun is actually two words, "arco iris" = Rainbow.
"me pinto" should be "me pintó."
