Translation of the song lyrics Perfume De Gardenias - Ibrahim Ferrer

Perfume De Gardenias (original)

Perfume de gardenias
Tiene tu boca
Bellisimos destellos
De luz en tu mirar
Tu risa es una rima
De alegres notas
Se mueven tu cabellos
Cual olas en la mar
Tu cuerpo es una copia
De Venus de Citeres
Que envidian las mujeres
Cuando te ven pasar
Y llevas en tu alma
La virginal pureza
Por eso es tu belleza
De un místico candor
Perfume de gardenias
Tienes tu boca
Perfume de gardenias
Perfume del amor…
Tu cuerpo es una copia
De Venus y Citeres
Que envidian las mujeres
Cuando te ven pasar
Y llevas en tu alma
La virginal pureza
Por eso es tu belleza
De un mistico candor
Perfume de gardenias
Tienes tu boca
Perfume de gardenias
Perfume del amor…

(translation)

gardenia perfume
has your mouth
beautiful sparkles
Of light in your look
your laugh is a rhyme
of happy notes
Your hair moves
like waves in the sea
Your body is a copy
From Venus to Cytheres
What women envy
when they see you pass
And you carry in your soul
The virgin purity
That's why it's your beauty
Of a mystical candor
gardenia perfume
you have your mouth
gardenia perfume
Scent of love...
Your body is a copy
Of Venus and Citheres
What women envy
when they see you pass
And you carry in your soul
The virgin purity
That's why it's your beauty
Of a mystical candor
gardenia perfume
you have your mouth
gardenia perfume
Scent of love...
