Coloradina and pretty, let the miners call me thatColoradina y guapina llámenmelo los mineros
And if they call me again, I'll go to the mine with themY otra vez que me lo llamen a la mina voy con ellos

If you love me, tell me, and if not, tell me to leaveSi me quieres dímelo y si no di que me vaya
Don't leave me out in the cold, I'm not a water pitcherNun me tengas al sereno que nun soi cántaru d'agua

There's a young boy at the dance, rummaging through his pocketsHai un chavalín nel baile, ruxen-y las faltriqueras
They're pieces of iron he picked up on the stairsSon cachos de ferraura qu'apañó pela escalera

The miller will threshLa molinera trillará
How well threshed it isQué bien trilladito está

From the highest part of the sky, nine carnations fellPelo más alto del cielo cayeron nueve claveles
Three Pepes, three Antonios, and three beloved ManuelesTres Pepes y tres Antonios y tres queridos Manueles
I'd give a coin for Antonio, a penny for PepínPor Antonio diera un duru, por Pepín una peseta
For a Manolín from the soul, I'd give my whole lifePor un Manolín del alma diera yo mi vida entera

The miller will threshLa molinera trillará
How well threshed it isQué bien trilladito está

If you want me for yourself, I'll be a strong wallSi me quieres a mi sola seré una muralla firme
But if you want someone else, I'll be a lightning bolt in leavingPero si quieres a otra seré un rayo en despedirme

I don't want you to love me or have affection for meNun quiero que tú me quieras ni que me tengas cariño
Nor do I want you to go around saying you're going to marry meNi quiero que andes diciendo que te vas a casar conmigo

To the sea you go, dear PepeY a la mar que te vayas querido Pepe
To the sea you go, I'll go to see you offA la mar que te vayas voy yo por vete
To the sea you go, dear PepeY a la mar que te vayas querido Pepe

For the descent of Tronco, there's a well-known villagePa la bajada de Tronco hay un pueblo muy nombráu
Called Carraluz, abundant in turnipsQue se llama Carraluz y ye abundante de nabos
