Happy is the boy
When he looks up above
And he sees that her
Window is open wide

Happy is the boy when
She throws her carnation
With an invitation
To come inside

Just a boy and girl
And a mandolino
Just a little kiss
As the vow is made

That's the way it is
Down in Puerto Fino
Just a little moonlight
Little serenade

Just a little song
He can win her heart with
Telling of a love
That will never fail

Many a romance
Has been known to start with
Just a little moonlight
(Just a little moonlight)
Little serenade
(Little serenade)
Just a little moonlight
(Just a little moonlight)
Little serenade
(Little serenade)
