La flor de la canela

(original)
Déjame que te cuente limeño
Déjame que te diga la gloria
Del ensueño
Que evoca la memoria
Del viejo puente, del río, y la alameda
Déjame que te cuente limeño
Ahora que aún perdura el recuerdo
Ahora que aún se mece un sueño
Del viejo puente, el río y la alameda
Jazmines en el pelo
Y rosas en la cara
Airosa caminaba, la flor de la canela
Derramaba lisuras y a su paso dejaba
Aroma de misturas
Que en el pecho llevaba
Del puente a la alameda
Menudo pie la lleva
Por la vereda que se estremece
Al ritmo de su cadera
Recogía la risa de la brisa del río
Y al viento la lanzaba
Del puente a la alameda
Déjame que te cuente limeño
¡Ay!
Deja que te diga moreno
Mis pensamientos
A ver si así despiertas del sueño
Del sueño que entretiene, moreno
Tus sentimientos
Aspiras de la lisura
Que da la flor de canela
Adornada con jazmines
Matizando su hermosura
Alfombras de nuevo el puente
Y engalanas la alameda
El río acompasará
Su paso por la vereda
Déjame que te cuente, limeño
¡Ay!
Deja que te diga moreno
Mi pensamiento
A ver si así despiertas del sueño
Del sueño que entretiene, moreno
Tu sentimiento
Aspiras de la lisura
Que da la flor de canela
Adornada con jazmines
Matizando su hermosura
Alfombras de nuevo el puente
Y engalanas la alameda
El río acompasará
Su paso por la vereda
(translation)
Let me tell you limeño
let me tell you the glory
of the daydream
that evokes memory
Of the old bridge, the river, and the mall
Let me tell you limeño
Now that the memory still lingers
Now that a dream still rocks
Of the old bridge, the river and the alameda
jasmine in hair
And roses on the face
Airosa walked, the flower of cinnamon
She spilled smoothness and in her wake she left
Aroma of mixtures
That on her chest she carried
From the bridge to the mall
what a foot she wears
Along the sidewalk that shakes
To the beat of your hip
She picked up laughter from the river breeze
And to the wind she threw it
From the bridge to the mall
Let me tell you limeño
Oh!
let me tell you brown
My thoughts
Let's see if that's how you wake up from sleep
Of the dream that entertains, dark
Your feelings
You aspire to smoothness
That she gives the cinnamon flower
adorned with jasmine
nuanced its beauty
Carpets again the bridge
And you decorate the mall
The river will flow
Her passing along the sidewalk
Let me tell you, limeño
Oh!
let me tell you brown
My thought
Let's see if that's how you wake up from sleep
Of the dream that entertains, dark
your feeling
You aspire to smoothness
What gives the cinnamon flower
adorned with jasmine
nuanced its beauty
Carpets again the bridge
And you decorate the mall
The river will flow
Your step along the sidewalk
