LYRICS, BULERÍA. (SPANISH)

Bulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía es la sangre de la tierra en que nací. bulería, buleria, más te quiero cada día de ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi.

lVen, como loco por la vida lcon el corazón latiendo lporque sabe que tu estás. lAy vida, que palpita de alegría lque me embriaga el sentimiento lcon tus besos más y más.

lAy pieles, el embrujo de la luna, lla belleza de una rosa ly la tibieza del mar. lAy eres, vino dulce de las uvas ldonde bebo con tus labios lde la fuente para amar.

lBulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía les la sangre de la tierra en que nací. lBulería, bulería, más te quiero cada día lde ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi.

lGanas, de vivir aquí a tu lado la tu cuerpo encadenado lhechizado de pasión lAy nada, sin tu amor yo no soy nada lsoy un barco a la deriva lque naufraga de dolor.

lEl perfume de tu aliento quiero respirar ly esa magia que hay en tu mirar lser el héroe de tus sueños todo y mucho mas lquiero ser tu calma y tempestad lBulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía les la sangre de la tierra en que nací.

lBulería, buleria, más te quiero cada día lde ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi. lBulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía les la sangre de la tierra en que nací. lBulería, bulería, mas te quiero cada día lde ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi.

lAcércate muy lento déjate sentir lenciende ya este fuego que hay dentro de mi.lAy, ay, ay, no me dejes sin tu amor lsin tus besos soy un pobre corazón lay, ay, ay, no me dejes sin tu amor la tu lado no hay pesares no hay dolor lay, ay, ay, no me dejes sin tu amor lque tu recuerdo siempre va por donde voy .

lAy virgencita del cielo como la quiero lella es la luna, ella es la luna, sin ella muero.lDe rodillas yo te lo pido ldile que yo la estoy amando lya no quiero vivir solito ldime hasta cuando.

lBulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía les la sangre de la tierra en que nací. lBulería, bulería, más te quiero cada día lde ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi.

lBulería, bulería, tan dentro del alma mía les la sangre de la tierra en que nací. lBulería, bulería, más te quiero cada día lde ti vivo enamorado desde que te vi. lBulería, bulería.

blood of the ground in which I was born.buleria, buleria, more I love you every day with you I live in love since I saw you. Come, as madman for the life with the heart beating because it is known that you are. Moan life, which flutters of happiness that intoxicates me the feeling with your kisses more and more.

lMoan skins, the spell of the moon, lthe beauty of a rose land the tepidity of the sea. lMoan you are, sweet wine of the grapes lwhere I drink with your lipslof the source to love. lBuleria, buleria, so inside my soullit is the blood of the ground in which I wasborn. lBuleria, buleria, more I love you every daylwith you I live in love since I saw you.

lYou win, of living here next to youlto your linked bodylbewitched of passion.lMoan at all, without your love I am not at alllI am a ship adriftlthat sinks of pain. lThe perfume of your breath I want to breatheland this magic that it is in you to look lto be the hero of your sleep quite and muchmore .lI want to be your calmness and storm.
