The Filipina

La Filipina

Ojalá no abandone la suerte
Traigo ramo' de espiga y jazmín
Cuando yo me arrimaba a la orilla
Escuchaba las voces cantando y decir
Mira, mira El Ebro, ha firmao' un juramento
Para morir con el mar

Me solían decir
Los sueño' de agua fría
Me solían decir
Los luceros que vi
Por su agua corría

Tú no tienes mantón
Tú no tienes manila
Quieres ser emperatriz
De la Filipina

Yo no tengo un real
Yo tengo concha fina
Debajo del tendal nos
Haremos cositas

La virgen del Pilar dice
No quiere ser francesa
Quiere ser capitana la tropa aragonesa

Tú no tienes mantón
Tú no tienes manila
Quieres ser emperatriz
De la Filipina

Yo no tengo un real
Yo tengo concha espina
Beberé todo el río
Pa' llegar a tu verita

The Filipina

I hope luck doesn't abandon me
I bring bouquets of wheat and jasmine
When I approached the shore
I heard voices singing and saying
Look, look The Ebro, has signed an oath
To die with the sea

They used to tell me
The dreams of cold water
They used to tell me
The stars I saw
By its water it flowed

You don't have a shawl
You don't have a manila shawl
You want to be empress
Of the Filipina

I don't have a penny
I have a fine shell
Under the clothesline we
Will do little things

The Virgin of Pilar says
She doesn't want to be French
She wants to be the captain of the Aragonese troops

You don't have a shawl
You don't have a manila shawl
You want to be empress
Of the Filipina

I don't have a penny
I have a thorn shell
I will drink the whole river
To reach your side
