Lyrics of Paloma Blanca - Lucía Méndez

Paloma Blanca (original)

Paloma blanca, blanca paloma,
Quien tuviera tus alas,
Tus alas quien tuviera,
Para volar, y volar para
Donde están mis amores,
Mis amores donde están.
Tómale y llévale,
Llévale y tómale,
Este ramo de flores,
De flores este ramo,
Pa' que se acuerde
De este pobre corazón.
Tuve un amor, un amor tuve,
Lo quise y lo quiero,
Lo quiero y lo quise,
Porque era blanco,
Porque blanco era,
Blanco como paloma,
Como paloma blanco.
Tómale y llévale,
Llévale y tómale,
Esta copa de vino,
De vino esta copa,
Pa' que se acuerde
De este pobre corazón.
Tuve un amor, un amor tuve,
Lo quise y lo quiero,
Lo quiero y lo quise,
Porque era blanco,
Porque blanco era,
Blanco como paloma,
Como paloma blanco.
Tómale y llévale,
Llévale y tómale,
Esta copa de vino,
De vino esta copa,
Pa' que se acuerde
De este pobre corazón.

(translation)

white dove, white dove,
who had your wings,
Your wings who had,
To fly, and fly to
where are my loves,
Where are my loves?
Take him and take him,
Take him and take him,
This bouquet of flowers,
Of flowers this bouquet,
So that he remembers
Of this poor heart.
I had a love, I had a love,
I wanted it and I want it,
I want it and I wanted it,
Because it was white
Because white was
white as a dove,
Like a white dove.
Take him and take him,
Take him and take him,
This glass of wine
Of wine this glass,
So that he remembers
Of this poor heart.
I had a love, I had a love,
I wanted it and I want it,
I want it and I wanted it,
Because it was white
Because white was
white as a dove,
Like a white dove.
Take him and take him,
Take him and take him,
This glass of wine
Of wine this glass,
So that he remembers
Of this poor heart.
