Spanish song performed by Lina Romay


Does anyone know the name of the Spanish song performed by Lina Romay in this film?

About all I was able to dig up on this is that Lina Romay is the singer of the "unknown spanish song"in the 1947 movie "Honeymoon",and she was also in "Love laughs at Andy Hardy".
I think the title of the song is in the song itself,but I don't speak spanish,so I couldn't translate.Although,maybe if you rent a copy,you could select the language and find out through "closed captioning"?
Good luck!

Thank you for the idea of renting out the DVD of "Honeymoon." I saw the movie last night and remembered I had asked about the song on imdb. I also posted the same question on Lina Romay's fan club website. Perhaps you would like to find the website by going to "google" and typing in "Lina Romay online fab club." I think you will find it most interesting.

Mary,
I still am waiting to hear from Lina Romay's online fan club. Since you also are a lover of old movies, I will tell you something interesting. My Great-Aunt BuNella Flaherty Fishburn was a stenographer at Paramount Pictures during Hollywood's Golden Age from the 1930s to 1950s. In fact, she and my great-uncle lived in Westwood Village, the same neighborhood where Nicole Brown Simpson would reside decades later. She and my great-uncle moved back to Indiana in the 1950s, and she was my "Auntie Mame." My great-aunt always was very discreet about her work for Paramount, but I still like to imagine the celebrities she met. At other times
I picture her typing scripts and contracts while Clark Gable was searching for Carole Lombard in the plane wreckage.

I stayed with my great-aunt after my great-uncle died on August 17, 1961. After we had just returned from shopping one afternoon, her former boss at Paramount called from Chicago, where he was on a business trip, and asked if she could take the train to Chicago and meet him for lunch. My aunt declined, saying her husband had just died unexpectedly. "Well, there goes my chance for stardom," I thought as I had hoped to accompany her to Chicago and meet the gentleman from Hollywood.

Every year my great-aunt had helped me celebrate the beginning of the school year by taking me out for a movie, dinner, and shopping. She always would buy me one outfit for school and an appropriate jewelry set, and I never forgot her kindness. I just thought you might like to know about my interesting great-aunt. She was born in Indianapolis, and two train tickets later took her and her sister to California where they answered employment ads in a newspaper. The sister was hired for a government job, and my great-aunt got the job at Paramount. As Auntie Mame said, "Life is a banquet, and most people are starving!" My great-aunt had the same spirit of adventure, and she was such an inspiration to me.
