HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 249 - La Isla Bonita (COVER) by MADONNA [ENG/ESP]

Hello Everyone at the Hive Open Mic Community ❤️

I hope you all are Having a good day, I am Oluwadrey,
Here is My entry for the week 249 of the Hive Open Mic, with the theme Travel.
Today I feel very emotional because I want to present this particular song: "La Isla Bonita by Madonna" .
(“La Isla Bonita”) translates to “The Beautiful Island”.

This was the first ever song I presented on Hive, I presented it here in the community like a year Ago. I think for the Hive Open Mic week 158. Looking back and reflecting at the Massive Love this community and my pals in the Neoxian city gave me, it was all the encouragement I needed to keep waxing stronger.

Here is why I selected this song for the theme.

Traveling have always been a fun way of learning, meeting people, wether new or familiar faces, it has always been an awesome experience. la Isla bonita is Just a song of someone reminiscing on the place She has ever long to be: San Pedro, meeting the people, experiencing the brilliant atmosphere , soul lifting music and a lover. The song Expresses the theme perfectly.

Espero que todos estén teniendo un buen día, soy Oluwadrey,
Aquí está mi entrada para la semana 249 del Hive Open Mic, con el tema Viajes.
Hoy me siento muy emocionada porque quiero presentar esta canción en particular: "La Isla Bonita de Madonna".
(“La Isla Bonita”) se traduce como "La Isla Hermosa".

Esta fue la primera canción que presenté en Hive, la presenté aquí en la comunidad hace como un año. Creo que para la semana 158 del Hive Open Mic. Mirando hacia atrás y reflexionando sobre el amor masivo que esta comunidad y mis amigos en la ciudad neoxiana me dieron, fue todo el aliento que necesitaba para seguir creciendo más fuerte.

Aquí está la razón por la que seleccioné esta canción como tema.

Viajar siempre ha sido una forma divertida de aprender, conocer gente, ya sean caras nuevas o familiares, siempre ha sido una experiencia increíble. La Isla Bonita es solo una canción de alguien que recuerda el lugar en el que siempre ha deseado estar: San Pedro, conociendo a la gente, experimentando la atmósfera brillante, la música que eleva el alma y un amante. La canción expresa el tema a la perfección.

La Isla Bonita Lyrics

Como puede ser verdad
(Verse 1)
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song
A young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
(Chorus)
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby

(Verse 2)
I fell in love with San Pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Te dijo te amo
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast
(Chorus)
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby

(Bridge)
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl

(Back to Verse 1 and Chorus)
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby
La la la la la la la
Te dijo te amo
La la la la la la la
El dijo que te ama
