And this is the words:
Quiso Dios, con su poder
fundir cuatro rayitos de sol
y hacer con ellos una mujer.
Y al cumplir su voluntad
en un jardín de España nací
como la flor en el rosal.
Tierra gloriosa de mi querer
tierra bendita de perfume y pasión
España en toda flor a tus pies
suspira un corazón.
Ay de mi pena mortal
porqué me alejo España de ti
porqué me arrancan de mi rosal.
Quiero yo volver a ser
la luz de aquel rayito de sol
hecho mujer
por voluntad de Dios.
¡Ay, madre mía!
¡ay! quién pudiera
ser luz del día
y al rayar la amanecida
sobre España renacer.
Mis pensamientos
han revestido
el firmamento
de besos míos
y sobre España
como gotas de rocío
los dejo caer.
En mi corazón
España te miro
y el eco llevará de mi canción
a España en un suspiro.
