Tus Besos Lyrics in English by Juan Luis Guerra 4.40

Azahar refers to the fragrant white flowers of citrus trees, especially the orange blossom. It's a beautiful and somewhat poetic word that isn't heard in everyday conversation or every song.

In this romantic bachata, Juan Luis Guerra uses azahar as a tender metaphor to describe his beloved: "Como ramito de azahar" (Like a little branch of orange blossom). This comparison evokes images of beauty, purity, and a sweet, delicate fragrance, making it a unique and endearing term of affection.

Get ready to swoon! Juan Luis Guerra's "Tus Besos" is a beautiful bachata love song that's all about the overwhelming joy and tenderness of a lover's kisses. He's singing directly to his beloved, calling her his "princesa linda de mi corazón" [beautiful princess of my heart] and comparing her to lovely things like a "ramito de azahar" [sprig of orange blossom] and a "palomita de mi palomar" [little dove from my dovecote].

But the real stars of the show are those kisses! He says, "Tus besos se han quedado en mi cara mujer / Son como sellitos de amor en mi piel" [Your kisses have stayed on my face, woman / They are like little stamps of love on my skin]. How sweet is that? They're not just kisses, they're "besos de ternura, besitos de miel" [kisses of tenderness, little kisses of honey] that "me arrullan, me dan la ilusión" [lull me, give me illusion] and are "bálsamo y perfume para mi corazón" [balm and perfume for my heart]. It's clear these kisses are everything to him, filling him with love and making his heart sing.
