[Intro]
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
[Verse 1]
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 flowers and song
[Verse 2]
When day is done and the sun starts to set in Granada
I envy the blush of the snow-clad Sierra Nevada
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
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
And soon it will welcome the stars
While a gang of guitars play a soft habanera
Then moonlit Granada will live again
The glory of yesterday, romantic, ay Granada
[Outro]
(Cha-cha-cha)
