Cielito Lindo Lyrics in English Pedro Infante

"Cielito Lindo" literally means “pretty little sky,” yet in Mexican Spanish it is a tender way to call someone “my darling.” In this beloved ranchera, the singer spots “un par de ojitos negros” – two mischievous black eyes – slipping down from the Sierra Morena mountains as if they were contraband treasures. Instantly smitten, he celebrates every charming detail, especially the tiny beauty mark beside his sweetheart’s lips, and asks that it be saved for him alone.

The famous refrain “Ay, ay, ay, ay… canta y no llores” is more than a catchy hook; it is a warm reminder that music chases sorrow away. Between playful flirting and light-hearted advice about choosing love wisely, Pedro Infante’s version turns the song into an open-air fiesta where singing becomes the cure for heartbreak. With its joyful melody and affectionate lyrics, “Cielito Lindo” invites listeners to belt along, smile wide, and let their hearts dance right along with the chorus.
