The Swallow (La golondrina)
Del libro «Favorite Collection of Tangos» por Xavier Cugat
High in the sky at break of dawn I see
the swallow fly above the world
among the drifting clouds he flashes by
beneath the eaves his little mate is waiting
beneath the leaves where all his treasures lie
Ah would that I were a (? I wish that I were a)
swallow that flies through the sky
on the wing rejoycing where all care flutters by
so light and free above the voice of the throng
high up in the sky where all the world’s a song
