DESCRIPTION:
This is an old but immortal song, Cielito Lindo played by André Rieu & his Johann Strauss Orchestra.

"Cielito" comes from the Spanish word "cielo" - heaven. It is used as a term of endearement comparable to "sweetheart" while "lindo" means beautiful - so we have "Beautiful Sweetheart"
