Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Arco Iris by Ivan Villazon from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Píntame una golondrina y te diré
Paint me a swallow and I'll tell you
Si eres un buen pintor
if you are a good painter
Debe de tené en el pico una espina
It must have a thorn in its beak
Y en los ojos un dolor
And in the eyes a pain
Pues, dicen que cuando cristo agonizaba
Well, they say that when Christ was dying
Llego del occidente
I come from the west
Enjambre de errantes golondrinas a limpiarle la cara
Swarm of wandering swallows to clean his face
Y a quitarle con sus picos las espinas
And to remove the thorns with their beaks
Clavadas en la frente
nailed to the forehead
Y tu, y tu, y tu,
And you, and you, and you
Tu eres mi golondrina Dina Luz
You are my swallow Dina Luz
Tu eres mi golondrina Dina Luz
You are my swallow Dina Luz
Tu eres mi golondrina
you are my swallow
Cuentan que los arco iris y que nacen
They say that rainbows and that they are born
En la nevada frente a Valledupar
In the snowfall in front of Valledupar
Y después de un aguacero y que se esconden
And after a downpour and they hide
En la sabana, cerquita e' patillal
In the savannah, close to the patillal
Y después las golondrinas y que salen
And then the swallows and they come out
Para que el sol las mire
For the sun to look at them
Y después desaparecen en el aire,
And then they disappear into thin air
Como los arco iris
like rainbows
Y tu, y tu, y tu,
And you, and you, and you
Tu eres mi arco iris Dina Luz
You are my rainbow Dina Luz
Tu eres mi arco iris Dina Luz
You are my rainbow Dina Luz
Tu eres mi arco iris
you are my rainbow
Si tu vez un arco iris que es muy bello
If you see a rainbow that is very beautiful
Y en el fondo una cruz
And in the background a cross
Lo pintó Jaime Molina desde el cielo
Jaime Molina painted it from heaven
Y es para Dina Luz
And it's for Dina Luz
Y si ella ve un arco iris por la tarde
And if she sees a rainbow in the afternoon
Se que comprenderá
I know she will understand
Que es el mismo que ha pintado mi compadre
That is the same one that my compadre has painted
Yo se lo vengo a entregar
I come to give it to you
Porqué, porqué, porqué
why, why, why
Porque es mi consentida Dina Luz
Because she is my spoiled Dina Luz
Porque es mi consentida Dina Luz
Because she is my spoiled Dina Luz
Ella es mi consentida
she is my spoiled
