Una Tarde De Verano
Una tarde de verano
Pasi por la moreria
Y vi una mora lavando
Al pié de una fuente fria
Yo la dije mora linda
Yo la dije mora bella
Deja beber mis caballos
Destas águas cristalinas
- No soy mora, el caballero
Que soy de España nascida
Me cautivaron los moros
Dia de Páscua Florida
Si quieres venir comigo
A España te llevaria
- Y la ropa, el caballero
Donde yo la dejaria?
- Lo que es de seda y lana
En mis caballos se iria
Y lo que no sirva nada
Por el rio tornaria
Al llegar por estos campos
La niña llora y sospira
Por que lloras niña linda
Por que lloras bella niña
- Lloro por que en estos campos
Mi padre a cazar venia
Con mi hermanito Alejandro
Y toda su compania
-Abrid puertas y ventanas
Balcones y galerias
Que por traer a una esposa
Os traigo una hermana mia
An Afternoon of Summer
An afternoon of summer
I passed by the Moorish quarter
And I saw a Moorish woman washing
At the foot of a cold fountain
I told her beautiful Moorish woman
I told her beautiful Moorish woman
Let my horses drink
From these crystal waters
- I am not a Moorish woman, sir
I am born in Spain
I was captivated by the Moors
On Easter Day
If you want to come with me
I would take you to Spain
- And the clothes, sir
Where would I leave them?
- What is silk and wool
Would go on my horses
And what is of no use
Would return by the river
Upon arriving in these fields
The girl cries and sighs
Why do you cry, beautiful girl
Why do you cry, lovely girl
- I cry because in these fields
My father used to come hunting
With my little brother Alejandro
And all his company
Open doors and windows
Balconies and galleries
For bringing a wife
I bring you my sister
