Vírgenes del Sol (Virgens of the Sun), composed by Peruvian composer and pianist Jorge Bravo de Rueda (1895 – 1940), is probably the second best-known Peruvian song worldwide after El Cóndor Pasa.  It was covered by dozens of interpreters, among others Yma Súmac, Los Calchakis, and Los Chacos.
In 2009 the song was declared National Cultural Heritage.

This version for piano solo can be listened in a recording by the arranger on Spotify and Amazon Music.

My piano cover arrangement of Quiet Nights Of Quiet Stars by Antonio Carlos Jobim.

Corcovado (known in English as Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars) is a bossa nova song and jazz standard written by Antônio Carlos Jobim in 1960. English lyrics were later written by Gene Lees. The Portuguese title refers to the Corcovado mountain in Rio de Janeiro.

Tony Bennett recorded the first popular English cover of Quiet Nights with new lyrics by Buddy Kaye in 1963.   Numerous English cover recordings then followed sometimes credited to Lees and/or Kaye and Lees, including the Andy Williams recording of the song with English lyrics, reaching #92 in the Billboard Hot 100 and #18 in the Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart in 1965.  Also receiving air-play, contemporaneously with Andy Williams' recording of Quiet Nights, was Kitty Kallen's version. Her album, titled Quiet Nights, was released by 20th Century-Fox Records in 1964.

Lyrics below:

Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window looking on the mountains
And the sea, so lovely

This is where I want to be
Here, with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's amber
I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was only
A bitter tragic joke
Have found with you
The meaning of existence oh, my love
