We have chosen a romantic song in Spanish as our first dance. We will start dance lessons this week and will get help putting together a choreography to go with it. I'm sharing the translated lyrics here and for those of you who wish to see the video it's on youtube.
What is your wedding song?
"Bendita Tu Luz" by Maná, English translation of lyrics
"Bendita Tu Luz" (Blessed, Your Light) by Maná
Album: Amor es Combatir
Bendito el lugar, y el motivo de estar ahí,
Bendita la coincidencia,
Bendito el reloj que nos puso puntual ahí,
Bendita sea tu presencia.
Blessed location, and the motive for being there,
Blessed the coincidence,
Blessed clock that set us there punctually,
Blessed be your presence.
Bendito Dios por encontrarnos en el camino,
Y de quitarme esta soledad de mi destino.
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada (x2)
Desde el alma.
Blessed God for meeting us on the road,
And for taking away this solitude from my destiny.
Blessed be the light, blessed be the light of your gaze (x2)
Coming from the soul.
Benditos ojos que me esquivaban,
Simulaban desde que me ignoraban,
Y de repente, sostienes la mirada.
Blessed eyes that shyly avoided me,
Pretending all along that they ignored me,
And suddenly, you sustain(ed) your gaze.
Bendita Dios por encontrarnos en el camino,
Y de quitarme esta soledad de mi destino.
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada (x2).
Blessed God for meeting us on the road,
And for taking away this solitude from my destiny.
Blessed be the light, blessed be the light of your gaze (x2).
Gloria divina, diste suerte de buen tino,
Y de encontrarte justo ahí, en medio del camino,
Gloria al cielo de encontrarte ahora,
Llevarte mi soledad, y coincidir en mi destino,
En el mismo destino.
Glory divine, you gave luck with good aim,
And for finding you just there, in the middle of the road,
Glory to heaven for finding you now,
Taking my solitude to you, and coinciding in my destiny,
In the same destiny.
Bendita la luz, bendita la luz de tu mirada (x2)
Bendita mirada, bendita mirada desde el alma, tu mirada,
Bendita, bendita, bendita mirada,
Bendita tu alma y bendita tu luz.
Blessed be the light, blessed be the light of your gaze (x2)
Blessed gaze, blessed gaze coming from the soul, your gaze,
Blessed, blessed, blessed gaze,
Blessed be your soul and blessed be your light.
Tu mirada, oh, oh, oh,
Digo es tan bendita tu luz, amor, amor,
Bendito el reloj y bendito el lugar,
Benditos tus besos cerquita del mar,
Y tu mirada, amor, amor,
Que bendita tú mirada, tu mirada, amor.
Your gaze, oh, oh, oh,
I say your gaze is so blessed, my love, my love,
Blessed clock and blessed location,
Blessed are your kisses near the sea,
And your gaze, my love, my love,
How blessed your gaze, your gaze, my love.
