Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mariposita de primavera by Omara Portuondo from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Mariposita, de primavera
Mariposite, spring
Alma con alas que errante vas
Soul with wings that wandering you go
Por los jardines de mi quimera
Through the gardens of my chimera
Por los jardines de mi quimera
Through the gardens of my chimera
Como un suspiro de amor fugaz
Like a fleeting sigh of love
Cuando te alejes a otras regiones
When you move away to other regions
Llévale un ruego de adoración
Bring Him a Prayer for Worship
Al que un día me dio ilusiones
The one who one day gave me illusions
Que se trocaron en decepciones
That they turned into disappointments
Que aún llevo dentro del corazón
That I still carry inside my heart
Yo quiero verla para besarle
I want to see her to kiss him
Como esos besos que tú a la flor
Like those kisses that you to the flower
Más cuando quieres la miel robarle
More when you want honey to steal
Más cuando quieres la miel robarle
More when you want honey to steal
Para embriagarte cual yo de amor
To intoxicate you like a love me
Mariposita, de primavera
Mariposite, spring
Dile a mi a mi amado, si es que lo ves
Tell me my beloved, if you see him
Dile que torne mi compañero
Tell him to become my partner
A los jardines de mi quimera
To the gardens of my chimera
Donde no vuelvas jamás tal vez
Where you never come back, maybe
