Spanish version (original)
Amapola, lindsima Amapola,
Sera siempre mi alma tuya sola.
Yo te quiero, amada nia mia,
Igual que ama la flor la luz del dia.
Amapola, lindsima Amapola,
No seas tan ingrata y mame.
Amapola, Amapola,
Como puedes tu vivir tan sola?
English lyrics (1940) by Albert Gamse
Amapola, my pretty little poppy,
You're like the lovely flower so sweet and heavenly.
Since I found you my heart is wrapped around you,
And, seeing you, it seems to beat a rhapsody.
Amapola, the pretty little poppy
Must copy its endearing charms from you.
Amapola, Amapola,
How I long to hear you say "I love you
