Dos gardenias para tiCon ellas quiero decirTe quiero, te adoro, mi vida.Ponles toda tu atenciónPorque son tu corazón y el mío.
Dos gardenias para tiQue tendrán todo el calor de un besoDe esos besos que te diY que jamás encontrarasEn el calor de otro querer.
A tu lado vivirán y te hablaránComo cuando estás conmigoY hasta creerásQue te dirán te quiero
Pero si un atardecerLas gardenias de mi amor se muerenEs porque han adivinadoQue tu amor se ha marchitadoPorque existe otro querer
Two gardenias for youWith them I mean to say"I love you, I adore you, my love"Give them all of your attentionBecause they represent your heart and mine
Two gardenias for youThey will have the warmth of a kissOf one of those kisses I gave youAnd that you'll never findIn the warmth of another lover
The flowers will live and will talk to youJust as when you are with meAnd you will believeThat they will actually say "I love you" to you
But if one afternoonThe gardenias of my love dieIt's because they have guessedThat your love for me has witheredBecause there's another lover
