Thematic

"Mira que eres linda" is a deeply emotional love ballad, written by Brito in the 1930s and first recorded in 1947. The song is about a really beautiful woman, with eyes as big as suns, with a look always in love, whose beauty is only comparable to a rose that came from heaven, so beautiful that the author by her side feels close to God.

The author tells us about his eyes and his way of looking:He is overwhelmed by her beauty:He believes that such beauty can only come from heaven:

Lyrics (Spanish)

Mira que eres linda,

qué preciosa eres.

Verdad que no he visto,

en mi vida muñeca,

más linda que tú.

Con esos ojazos,

que parecen soles.

Con esa mirada,

siempre enamorada,

con que miras tú.

Mira que eres linda,

qué preciosa eres.

Estando a tu lado,

verdad que me siento,

más cerca de Dios.

Porque eres divina,

tan linda y primorosa,

que solo una rosa,

caída del cielo,

fuera como tú.

- Orquesta -

Con esos ojazos,

que parecen soles.

Con esa mirada,

siempre enamorada,

con que miras tú.

Mira que eres linda,

qué preciosa eres.

Estando a tu lado,

verdad que me siento,

más cerca de Dios.

Porque eres divina,

tan linda y primorosa,

que solo una rosa,

caída del cielo,

fuera como tú.
