Softly the night wind singing 
Tells me it's bringing my love to me 
With every breath it's sending 
Love never ending across the sea 
My heart and I are trying 
To keep from crying 
But we are lonely 
Fly little bird go winging 
And please lead him home safely to me 

Cucurrucucu Paloma 
Cucurrucucu no llores 
Las piedras jamas paloma 
Que van a saber de amores 

What good is my tomorrow 
When filled with sorrow just like today 
I need him here to hold me 
Here to enfold me, always to stay 
So little bird please find him 
And then remind him I am so lonely 
Fly little bird, go winging 
And please lead him home safely to me 

Cucurrucucu Paloma 
Cucurrucucu no llores 
Las piedras jamas paloma 
Que van a saber de amores

Cucurrucucu 
Cucurrucucu 
Cucurrucucu 
Paloma ya no lo llores
