 -English Lyrics by Dorothy Dodd and Music by Augustin Lara


 Granada, I'm falling under your spell
 And if you could speak, what a fascinating tale you would tell
 Of an age the world has long forgotten
 Of an age that weaves a silent magic in Granada today

 The dawn in the sky greets the day with a sigh for Granada
 For she can remember the splendor that once was Granada
 It still can be found in the hills all around as I wand'r along
 Entranced by the beauty before me
 Entranced by a land full of sunshine and flowers and song

 And when day is done and the sun starts to set in Granada
 I envy the blush of the snow-clad Sierra Nevada
 For soon it will welcome the star while a thousand guitars
 Play a soft haba?era

 Then moonlit Granada will live again the glory of yesterday
 Romantic and gay!!!
