Swallow

Anduriña (part. Juan Pardo)

In Galicia one dayEn Galicia un día
I heard an old story, in a caféEu escoitei unha vella historia, nun café
It was about a girl who escaped from the villageEra dunha nena que da aldea, se escapou
Young swallow that flewAnduriña nova que vóou

They cry thinking, where will she be?Choran ó pensar, ¿onde andará?
But no one wants to go look for herMais ninguén a quere ir buscar
They called her SwallowAnduriña lle chamaron
Those she left behind return quickly to the portOs que alí deixou torna pronto ó porto
Please!¡Por favor!

An old man speaks by the hearthUn velliño fala xunto ó lar
Tells me very softly and without maliceDi-me moi baixiño e sin maldade
Swallow is youngAnduriña e nova
She will return, they will see!Voltará, ¡xa-lo verán!
Poor little bird, without feathersProbe paxariño, sen plumar

On any given day, she will landNun día calqueira, pousará
Her mystery will no longer beSeu misterio, xa non o será
The name Swallow, they will never say it againO nome Anduriña, xa xamais, se llo dirán
But in the meantime, where does she go?Pero mentres tanto, ¿onde vái?
Swallow where do you go?Anduriña ¿onde vái?
Swallow where do you go?Anduriña ¿onde vái?
SwallowAnduriña
Where do you go?¿Onde vái?
