Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Déjame que te diga la gloria
Then we hear the memory evoked
The Old Bridge, the River and the Alameda
Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Ahora que aún perfume el recuerdo
Ahora que aún se mece en su sueño
The old river bridge and the Alameda
Jazmines in the hair and roses in the cara
Airosa caminaba la flor de la canela
Derramaba lisura y a su paso dejaba
Mixed aromas that are in the oily flavor
From the bridge to the Alameda
Menudo pie la lleva
Por la vereda que se tremece
Al ritmo de su cadera
Recogía la risa de la brisa del río
There comes the path from the bridge to the Alameda
Déjame que te cuente, limeño
Ay, already you diga, moreno, my thoughts
A ver si así despiertas del sueño
The sueño that maintains, moreno
Your feelings
Aspiras de la lisura
What about the canela flower
Adornada con jazmines
Matizando su hermosura
Alfombras de nuevo el puente
Y engalanas la alameda
Let the river pass by the river
Y recuerda que
Jazmines in the hair and roses in the cara
Airosa caminaba la flor de la canela
Derramaba lisura y a su paso dejaba
Mixed aroma that comes from the oily aroma
From the bridge to the Alameda
Menudo pie la lleva
Por la vereda que se tremece
Al ritmo de su cadera
Recogía la risa de la brisa del río
There comes the path from the bridge to the Alameda
