Loma De Cayenas Lyrics in English Vicente Garcia , Juan Luis Guerra
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Loma De Cayenas by Vicente Garcia from Spanish to English.
Cuando te vi
When I saw you
Llegó mi vida el alba
Dawn came to my life
Quedó encendida mi alma
My soul was lit
Para sembrar en el jardín
To plant in the garden
Cuando te vi
When I saw you
Yo te entregué mis ganas
I gave you my desires
El sol a tus mañanas
The sun to your mornings
Fue floreciendo el capullito
The little bud began to bloom
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas
And so this hill of hibiscus grew
Nacieron de mi pecho para ti
They were born from my chest for you
Por ti creció en el campo la esperanza negra cuando te vi
For you, the dark hope grew in the field when I saw you
Cayó en la sembra lluvia
Rain fell on the sowing
Y crecieron las flores
And the flowers grew
Que se cosecha el fruto
From which the fruit is harvested
De nuestras ilusiones
Of our illusions
(Mamita linda cuando yo te vi)
(Beautiful babe when I saw you)
Cayó en la tierra lluvia
Rain fell on the earth
Me diste mil razones
You gave me a thousand reasons
La dueña de mis sueños
The owner of my dreams
Reina de mis amores
Queen of my loves
La dueña de mis sueños
The owner of my dreams
La reina de mis amores
The queen of my loves
Cuando te vi
When I saw you
Tú fuiste mi desvelo
You were my sleeplessness
Cambió de tono el cielo
The sky changed tone
Se puso rojo ají-ti-ti
It turned chili-red
Cuando te vi
When I saw you
Sentí que alzaba vuelo
I felt I was taking flight
Yo tuve el mundo entero
I had the whole world
Fue floreciendo el capullito
The little bud began to bloom
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas
And so this hill of hibiscus grew
Nacieron de mi pecho para ti
They were born from my chest for you
Por ti creció en el campo la esperanza negra cuando te vi
For you, the dark hope grew in the field when I saw you
Cayó en la sembra lluvia
Rain fell on the sowing
Y crecieron las flores
And the flowers grew
Que se cosecha el fruto
From which the fruit is harvested
De nuestras ilusiones
Of our illusions
(Mamita linda cuando yo te vi)
(Beautiful babe when I saw you)
Cayó en la tierra lluvia
Rain fell on the earth
Me diste mil razones
You gave me a thousand reasons
La dueña de mis sueños
The owner of my dreams
Reina de mis amores
Queen of my loves
La dueña de mis sueños
The owner of my dreams
La reina de mis amores
The queen of my loves
De mis amores
Of my loves
De mis amores
Of my loves
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas en mi pecho para ti
And so this hill of hibiscus grew in my chest for you
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas para ti
And so this hill of hibiscus grew for you
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas en mi pecho para ti
And so this hill of hibiscus grew in my chest for you
Y así creció esta loma de cayenas en mi pecho

Y así creció esta loma de cayenas en mi pecho para ti

Cayó en la siembra lluvia

cayenas — hibiscus flowers
Cayenas refers to hibiscus flowers, which are beautiful and vibrant tropical flowers. It's a less common word in everyday Spanish songs, making it stand out.
In the song, Vicente Garcia uses "loma de cayenas" (hill of hibiscus flowers) as a poetic metaphor for the growth of his love and hope. The flowers symbolize the blossoming of his emotions and dreams for his beloved, making the word both beautiful and central to the song's romantic theme.
