Lyrics

English lyrics:
What enchantment! eyes dark beaming
Lips so winsome shaped by truth
With those brown cheeks where health mantles
War forever on my youth
What enchantment!
Lips so winsome shaped by truth
With those brown cheeks where health mantles
War forever on my youth
Thy sweet power me consuming
Thy proud humor me abusing
Thy long tresses me subduing
I the bondage humbly own. Ah!
Ah, love’s coming, ah, love’s coming
Yes, love’s coming his triumph to claim
Ah love’s coming, ah, love’s coming
Yes, love’s coming his triumph to claim
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Yes love’s coming his triumph to claim
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Yes love’s coming his triumph to claim

Spanish lyrics:
Tu sandunga yesos ojos
Tu boquita de clavel
Yesa carita morena
Me vienen querra a poner
Tu sandunga
Tu boquita de clavel
Yesa carita morena
Me vienen querra a poner
Ay tirana! Tu me matas
Con desdenes me maltrates
Con tus trenzas, Tu me atas
Yo me rindo, Da cuar tel. Ay!
Ay que viene, ay que viene
Que me viene el amor a prender
Ay que viene, ay que viene
Que me viene el amor a prender
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
Que me viene el amor a prender
Ay ay ay ay ay ay
Que me viene el amor a prender
