La Luna y el Toro

The Moon and the Bull

La Luna y el Toro

The moon is fixing her hairLa luna se está peinando
In the river's mirrorsEn los espejos del río
And a bull is watching herY un toro la está mirando
Hiding in the brushEntre la jara escondío
When the cheerful morning arrivesCuando llega la alegre mañana
And the moon slips away from the riverY la luna se escapa del río
The little bull jumps into the waterEl torito se mete en el agua
Charging when he sees she's goneEmbistiendo al ver que se ha ido

That bull in love with the moonEse toro enamorao de la luna
Who leaves at night for the meadowQue abandona por las noches la maná
He's painted like poppies and olivesEs pintao de amapola y aceituna
And the foreman gave him a bellY le puso campanero el mayoral
The pilgrims of the mountainsLos romeros de los montes
Kiss his foreheadLe besan la frente
The stars in the skyLas estrellas de los cielos
Shower him with silverLo bañan de plata
And the little bull, who's fierceY el torito que es bravío
And of noble breedY de casta valiente

Colorful fansAbanicos de colores
Look like his legsParecen sus patas
The moon is coming tonightLa luna viene esta noche
In a flowing gownCon una bata de cola
And the bull is waiting for herY el toro la está esperando
Among the brush and the shadeEntre la jara y la sombra
In the water's reflection of the riverEn la cara del agua del río
Where the moon sleeps, oh moonlightDonde duerme la luna lunera
The little bull, jealous and lostEl torito, celoso perdío
Watches over her like a sentinelLa vigila como un centinela
ChorusEstribillo
Colorful fansAbanicos de colores
Look like his legsParecen sus patas
