Luna Lunera (A Peruvian Lullaby)

Huzaidi Hashim



Bright Moon, Shining Moon
By God, tell my lover to love me
Tell him I can't survive this pain
Tell him to come home by my side

Bright Moon, Shining Moon
By God, tell my lover to love me 
Tell him to show compassion for me
Tell him to have mercy on my heart

Oh lovely round Moon 
Let your light shine away 
the darkness of my nights 
Oh lovely round Moon 
Tell him I met you,
in the name of love
for love ... 

 

Luna lunera, cascabelera
Ve dile a mi amorcito por dios que me quiera
Dile que no vivo de tanto padecer
Dile que a mi lado debiera volver.

Luna lunera, cascabelera
Ve dile a mi amorcito por dios que me quiera
Dile que me muero que tenga compasion
Dile que se apiade de mi corazon.

Ay lunita redondita
Que la espuma de tu luz
Bañe mis noches.
Ay lunita redondita
Dile que me has visto tu
Llorar de amor.
De amor.
