"Amapola" is a popular song, written by Spanish composer Joseph LaCalle with Spanish lyrics although the English language lyrics were written by Albert Gamse.
Though the song was published in 1924, the most popular recorded version was made nearly two decades later by the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra with vocalists Helen O'Connell and Bob Eberly. The recording was released by Decca Records as catalog number 3629. The record first reached the Billboard charts on March 14, 1941 and lasted 14 weeks on the chart, peaking at #1.
An instrumental version of the piece formed an important leitmotif in the gangster film Once Upon a Time in America (1984).
Spanish version
Amapola, lindisima amapola,
Será siempre mi alma tuya sola.
Yo te quiero, amada niña mia,
Igual que ama la flor la luz del día.
Amapola, lindisima amapola,
No seas tan ingrata y ámame.
Amapola, amapola
Cómo puedes tú vivir tan sola.
Yo te quiero, amada niña mía.
Igual que ama la flor la luz del día.
Amapola, lindísima amapola,
No seas tan ingrata y ámame.
Amapola, amapola
Cómo puedes tú vivir tan sola
