Ese lunar que tienes, cielito lindo, junto a la boca
E7 A
No se lo des a nadie, cielito lindo, que ami' me toca

CH: Ay ay ay ay, canta y no llores
E A
Porque cantando se allegran, cielito lindo, los corazones
De la sierra morena, cielito lindo, vienen bajando
Un par de ojitos negros, cielito lindo, de contrabando
De tu casa a la mia, cielito lindo, no hay mas que un paso
Ahora que estamos solos, cielito lindo, dame un brazo
Una flecha en el aire, cielito lindo, lanzo' cupido
Y como fue' jugando, cielito lindo, yo fui' el herido
TRANSLATION:
That beauty mark that you have near your mouth
Don't [? to anyone that I loved to touch it.
CH: Ay ay ay ay, sing and don't cry
Because singing gladdens the heart
From the Sierra Morena arrives descending
A pair of black eyes, of contraband
From your house to mine is no more than a step
Now that we are alone give me a hug
An arrow in the air cupid launched
And as it went playing, I was the wounded one
