Violetas Imperiales (1953) - Luis Mariano

Sabes que ya no habrá primavera

Si tu no estás aquí violetera

La primavera ha venido y yo sé por qué ha sido

Entre las flores que ofreces es como una flor

Piensa que en esta corte francesa

Eres mas que gitana princesa

Violeta de España, tú en tierra extraña

Vives para el recuerdo de aquel amor

Yo tuve un ruiseñor que llegó a suspirar

Para qué quiero amor si nadie me va amar

Ramito de violetas que luzca en el ojal

Me siento emperador de violeta imperial

Era un cielo de primavera

Cuando me dijo la violetera:

«Cómpreme usted mis violetas que son las primeras

Van a traerle la suerte su suerte es mi flor.»

Vuelve a tu rincón de la Alhambra

Donde copia la luna tus zambras

Violeta de España, tu en tierra extraña

Vives dando sentido a mi amor, amor

You know there will be no more spring

If you are not here violetera

Spring has come and I know why it has been

Among the flowers you offer is like a flower

Think that in this French court

You are more than a gypsy princess

Violeta from Spain, you in a strange land

You live for the memory of that love

I had a nightingale that came to sigh

Why do I want love if nobody is going to love me?

Bouquet of violets that shines in the buttonhole

I feel emperor of imperial violet

It was a spring sky

When the violet girl told me:

"Buy me my violets, which are the first

They are going to bring you luck, your luck is my flower.”

Go back to your corner of the Alhambra

Where the moon copies your zambras

Violeta from Spain, you in a strange land

You live giving meaning to my love, love
