Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bendita Tu Luz by Juan Luis Guerra from Spanish to English.
Bendito el lugar, y el motivo de estar ahí
Blessed the place, and the reason for being there
Bendita la coincidencia
Blessed the coincidence
Bendito el reloj, que nos puso puntual ahí
Blessed the clock, that put us there on time
Bendita sea tu presencia
Blessed be your presence
Bendito Dios por encontrarnos, en el camino
Blessed God for finding us, on the road
Y de quitarme esta soledad, de mi destino
And for taking away this loneliness, from my destiny
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Desde el alma
From the soul
Benditos ojos, que me esquivaban
Blessed eyes, that avoided me
Simulaban desdén, que me ignoraban
They pretended disdain, they ignored me
Y de repente, sostienes la mirada
And suddenly, you hold the gaze
Bendito Dios por encontrarnos, en el camino
Blessed God for finding us, on the road
Y de quitarme esta soledad, de mi destino
And for taking away this loneliness, from my destiny
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Gloria divina, de esta suerte del buen Tino
Divine glory, of this luck of good Tino
De encontrarte justo ahí, en medio del camino
To find you right there, in the middle of the road
Gloria al cielo de encontrarte ahora
Glory to the sky for finding you now
Llevarte mi soledad, y coincidir en mi destino
Taking away my loneliness, and coinciding in my destiny
En el mismo destino, épale
In the same destiny, hey
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada
Blessed the light, blessed the light of your gaze
Bendita mirada
Blessed gaze
Bendita mirada desde el alma
Blessed gaze from the soul
bendita, bendita, bendita mirada
blessed, blessed, blessed gaze
Bendita tu alma y bendita tu luz
Blessed your soul and blessed your light
Te digo es tan bendita tu luz, amor, amor
I tell you, your light is so blessed, love, love
bendito el reloj y bendito el lugar
blessed the clock and blessed the place
Benditos tus besos cerquita del mar
Blessed your kisses close to the sea
Qué bendita tu mirada, tu mirada amor
How blessed is your gaze, your gaze, love
