Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Let me tell you, Lima
Déjame que te diga la gloria
Let me tell you the glory
Del ensueño que evoca la memoria
Of the dream that evokes memory
Del viejo puente, del río y la alameda
Of the old bridge, of the river and the boulevard
Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Let me tell you, Lima
Ahora que aún perfuma el recuerdo
Now that the memory still perfumes
Ahora que aún se mece en su sueño
Now that he's still rocking in his sleep
El viejo puente el río y la alameda
The old bridge the river and the mall
Jazmines en el pelo y rosas en la cara
Jasmine in her hair and roses on her face
Airosa caminaba la flor de la canela
Airy walked the cinnamon flower
Derramaba lisura y a su paso dejaba
She spilled smoothness and at her pace she left
Aromas de mixtura que en el pecho llevaba
Aromas of mixture that she carried on her chest
Del puente a la alameda
From the bridge to the mall
Menudo pie la lleva
What a foot takes her
Por la vereda que se estremece
along the path that trembles
Al ritmo de su cadera
to the rhythm of your hip
Recogía la risa de la brisa del río
She picked up the laughter from the river breeze
Y al viento la lanzaba del puente a la alameda
And to the wind she threw her from the bridge to the mall
Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Let me tell you, Lima
Ay, deja que te diga, moreno, mi pensamiento
Oh, let me tell you, moreno, my thoughts
A ver si así despiertas del sueño
Let's see if that's how you wake up from the dream
Del sueño que entretiene, moreno
From the dream that entertains, dark
Tus sentimientos
Your feelings
Aspiras de la lisura
you aspire to smoothness
Que da la flor de canela
That she gives the cinnamon flower
Adornada con jazmines
adorned with jasmine
Matizando su hermosura
Shading her beauty
Alfombras de nuevo el puente
carpets again the bridge
Y engalanas la alameda
And you decorate the mall
Que el río acompasará su paso por la vereda
That the river will pace her step along the path
Y recuerda que
And remember that
Jazmines en el pelo y rosas en la cara
Jasmine in her hair and roses on her face
Airosa caminaba la flor de la canela
Airy walked the cinnamon flower
Derramaba lisura y a su paso dejaba
She spilled smoothness and at her pace she left
Aroma de mixtura que en el pecho llevaba
Aroma of mixture that she carried on her chest
Del puente a la alameda

Menudo pie la lleva

Recogía la risa de la brisa del río
She picked up the laughter from the river breeze
Y al viento la lanzaba del puente a la alameda
And to the wind she threw her from the bridge to the mall
