The Marquis's Daughter

Markesaren alaba

The daughter of a Marquis was interestedMarkes baten alaba interesatua
in love with a sailormarineruarekin enamoratua
She discovered his secretdeskubritu gaberik bere sekretua
love had entered her heart.amodioa zeukan barrena sartua.

They were content with each otherKonformatu ziraden elkarren artean
they wouldn't marry the following year.ezkonduko zirela hurrengo urtean.
Between learning at schoolEskola ikasteko bien bitartean
they were completely apart in their town.beraren herritikan guztiz apartean.

Both were so availableHala disponiturik jarri ziren biak
to understand each other's letters.kartaz entenditzeko elkarren berriak.
To put on formalitiesFormalidadea(re)kin jartzeko egiak
but they weren't sleeping in love's eyes.baina ez ziren lo egon amaren begiak.

The mother couldn't stand that word,Ezin egon zen ama hitz hori sufritzen,
she immediately started to detain the letters,berehala hasi zen kartak detenitzen,
with a greater intention they were losing the marriage;intentzio haundiagoz ezkontza galdutzen;
Juanita didn't think like that.Juanitak holakorik ez zuen pentsatzen.

The malice of love!: it has gone to the runnerAmaren malezia!: korreora joan da
Antonio made a letter that he died;Antonio hil zela egin zuen karta;
Juanita knowing that new sadnessJuanitaren tristura berri hura jakinda
deceived by saying a lie.engainatua bestek gezur bat esanda.

The mother says: my dear JuanitaAmak esaten dio: Juanita nerea
is lost, they say Antonio Maria.galdu da, diotenez Antonio Maria.
I will find you a better onenik bilatuko dizut beste bat hobea
a noble, owner of many interests.maiorazko, interes askoren jabea.

Time fully startedDenbora kunpliturik galaia abian
what happened in her memoryzer pasatu ote zen haren memorian
without taking the letter that was sent long agokartarik hartu gabe joan den aspaldian
an innocent entered the town where he was born.inozente sartu zen jaio zen herrian.

This is what the first one said.Hau da lehendabiziko hark esan zuena.
-What is it that I honor with the musician?-Zer da musikarekin onratzen dutena?
The Marquis's daughter in the streetMarkesaren alaba kalean barrena
he needed what he wanted.esposario zela hark behar zuena.

He fainted for an hourDesmaiaturik egin zuen ordubete
then the bride said two wordsgero nobia eske hitz bi egin arte
a machine surrounded peopleinguratu zitzaion makina bat jende
he suddenly died for the second hour.bigarren ordurako hil zen derepente.

The night passed and the next morningGaua pasatu eta hurrengo goizean
he had his second class funeral.entierroa zuen bigarren klasean.
Behind the Marquis's daughter;Markesaren alaba guztien atzean;
What a pity would be in her heart?Zer pena izango zen haren bihotzean?

With a broken heart Antonio diedPenarekin leherturik Antonio hil zen
Juanita accompanied him to the church.akonpainatu zuen Juanitak elizan.
If he loved he said as I didMaitasuna bazion esan dudan gisan
he never had any health.geroztikan ez zuen osasunik izan.

The remedy was that feelingErremedia baledi sentimendu hori
put an end to Jesus' lovebitarteko bat jarri Jesus maiteari
praying to the Virgin Maryorazio eginaz Birjina Amari
for Antonio Maria to happen in heaven.zeruan gerta dadin Antonio Mari.

In each other's company we also wantElkarren konpainian guk ere nahi dugu
Virgin, tell the Lord the truthBirjina egiozu Jaunari erregu
if you could for all Christianskristau guztiogatik baldin ahal bazenu
Iturrino has it so desired.Iturrinok horrela desiatutzen du.

What the sky and earth did to himZeruak eta lurrak egin zituena
come to my memory to clarify;memoria argitzera zatoz neregana;
if there is hope given by someoneesperantza badaukat zerorrek emana
I will fulfill what I desire.kunplituko dudala desio dudana.

With love pains at this momentAmodiozko penak oraingo honetan
if I could publish in new verses;publika ahal banintza bertso berrietan;
I have found out well in those ordersenteratu naiz ongi enkargu horietan
San Jose in three and a half afternoons.San Jose arratsaldeko hiru t'erdietan.

It was a clear sign to rememberEgun seinalea zen gogoan hartzeko
to say to go to his house.esan ziola haren etxera joateko.
-I want to manifest this word-Deseo dudan hitz hau manifestatzeko
with you, Antonio, I want to be.zurekin, Antonio, nago izateko.

-What do you say to me? Juanita, that word,-Zer esaten didazu? Juanita, hitz hori,
if you seem to be trying if it seems strange.tentatzen ari zarela trazak badirudi.
You don't touch my dignityEz zait gure gradurik tokatutzen niri
don't make fun of the sailor.ez burlarikan egin marineruari.

-You can believe it well-Eduki dezakezu ongi sinistua
that I liked you long ago.aspaldian nengoela zutaz gustatua.
I won't leave you abandonedEz zaitut nik utziko desanparatua
that's why I make you swear today.hala egiten dizut gaur juramentua.

-They will be useless in our anger-Alferrik izango dira haserre gurean
I won't move to eternity.ez naute mudatuko eternidadean.
I would like to marry in good affectionEsposatu nahi nuke kariño onean
when Antonio Maria comes.Antonio Maria etortzen denean.

-Mother don't tell me that-Ama ez niri esan horrelakorikan
I don't love anyone else.ez dut nik besteengana amodiorikan.
I can't be happy in my heartEzin alegre leike nere barrenikan
because of being a good conscience.komenientzia ona izanagatikan.

-Leave aside such works-Utzi alde batera horrelako lanak
I don't see you as a lady like you.ez ditut nik ikusten zu bezala damak.
If you want to take honor and fameNahi badituzu hartu onra eta famak
they will take you and your mothers.giatuko zaituzteaitak eta amak.
