Lyrics of La Fuente del Deseo - El Barrio

La Fuente del Deseo (original)

A la fuente del deseo dice mi madre que vaya
A ver si me sale novia la mas bonita de España
En la fuente del deseo solo beben las palomas
A ver si me sale novia la mas bonita de Roma
Como cada noche
En la plazuela de aquel viejo pueblo
Tiré una moneda al agua cerre los ojos
Y le pido un deseo
Que juntos de la mano vieramos el atardecer
Que las damas de noche perfumaran mi querer
Que tras la luna se durmiera con el rumor del agua
Que unos niños que a la rueda rueda
En un corro cantaba
Me sentiria como rey del universo
No cambiaria el mayor lucero
Por un simple y corto beso
Mi madre me la notao
Mis ojos dicen que lleva el brillo de enamorao
A la fuente del deseo dice mi madre que vaya
A ver si me sale novia la mas bonita de España
En la fuente del deseo solo beben las palomas
A ver si me sale novia la mas bonita de Roma

(translation)

My mother tells me to go to the source of desire
Let's see if I get the most beautiful girlfriend in Spain
At the fountain of desire only doves drink
Let's see if I get the most beautiful girlfriend in Rome
like every night
In the square of that old town
I threw a coin into the water I closed my eyes
And I make a wish
That together hand in hand we would see the sunset
Let the ladies of the night perfume my love
That behind the moon he fell asleep with the sound of water
That some children who roll the wheel
In a chorus I sang
I would feel like king of the universe
I wouldn't change the biggest star
For a simple and short kiss
My mother noticed it
My eyes say that she has the shine of love
My mother tells me to go to the source of desire
Let's see if I get the most beautiful girlfriend in Spain
At the fountain of desire only doves drink
Let's see if I get the most beautiful girlfriend in Rome
