Granada, I'm falling under your spell And if you could speak, what a fascinating tale you would tell Of an age the world has long forgotten Of an age that weaves a silent magic in granada today The dawn in the sky greets the day with a sigh for granada For she can remember the splendor that once was granada It still can be found in the hills all around as I wander along Entranced by the beauty before me Entranced by a land full of sunshine and flowers and song And when day is done and the sun starts to set in granada I envy the blush of the snow-clad sierra nevada For soon it will welcome the stars while a thousand guitars Play a soft habanera Then moonlit granada will live again the glory of yesterday Romantic and gay
