El Toro y La Luna

The Bull and the Moon

El Toro y La Luna

The Moon was combing her hairLa Luna se estaba peinando
In the mirrors of the riverEn los espejos del río
And a bull is looking at herY un toro la está mirando
He hid among the rockroseEntre la jara escondío

When the joyful morning comesCuando llega la alegre mañana
And the Moon escapes from the riverY la Luna se escapa del río
The little bull gets into the waterEl torito se mete en el agua
Ramming her when he sees that she has leftEmbistiéndola al ver que se ha ido

And that bull in love with the MoonY ese toro enamorado de la Luna
That abandons the manna at nightQue abandona por las noches la maná
It is painted with poppy and oliveEs pintado de amapola y aceituna
And the foreman appointed him a bell ringerY le puso campanero el mayoral
The pilgrims of the mountains kiss his foreheadLos romeros de los montes le besan la frente
The stars and celestial bodies bathe it in silverLas estrellas y luceros lo bañan de plata
And the little bull that is brave and of brave casteY el torito que es bravío y de casta valiente
Colorful fans look like their legsAbanicos de colores parecen sus patas

la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la la, la, la la, la, la la, la, la
The pilgrims of the mountains kiss his foreheadLos romeros de los montes le besan la frente
The stars and celestial bodies bathe it in silverLas estrellas y luceros lo bañan de plata
And the little bull that is brave and of brave casteY el torito que es bravío y de casta valiente
Colorful fans look like their legsAbanicos de colores parecen sus patas

The moon rises tonightLa Luna sale esta noche
With a black tailcoatCon negra bata de cola
And the bull is looking at herY el toro la está mirando
Between the rockrose and the shadowEntre la jara y la sombra

And on the face of the river waterY en la cara del agua del río
Where the moon sleepsDonde duerme la Luna lunera
The brave bullEl torito de casta bravío
He watches over her like a sentinelLa vigila como un centinela

And that bull in love with the MoonY ese toro enamorado de la Luna
That abandons the manna at nightQue abandona por las noches la maná
And it is painted with poppy and oliveY es pintado de amapola y aceituna
And the foreman appointed him a bell ringerY le puso campanero el mayoral

The pilgrims of the mountains kiss his foreheadLos romeros de los montes le besan la frente
The stars and celestial bodies bathe it in silverLas estrellas y luceros lo bañan de plata
And the little bull that is brave and of brave casteY el torito que es bravío y de casta valiente
Colorful fans look like their legsAbanicos de colores parecen sus patas
