Cantares De Trilla

Here comes the galbanaYa viene la galbana
from over that hillpor aquel cerro

I've already got it.yo ya la tengo.
A widow goes to massUna viuda va a misa
and she keeps saying:y va diciendo:
"Who'll buy this vineyard¿Quién me compra esta viña
now that the owner’s dead?"que ha muerto el dueño?
Windows facing the streetVentanas a la calle
are dangerousson peligrosas
for the fathers who havepa los padres que tienen
gorgeous daughters.niñas hermosas.
The hermit one fine dayEl ermitaño un buen día
got sick from drinking waterpor beber agua enfermó
and the Virgin told him:y la Virgen le decía:
"Drink wine, not water.""Bebe vino y agua no"
Down the Lares mountainsPor la sierra de Lares
they're coming downvienen bajando
twenty-four thousand friarsveinticuatro mil frailes
chasing after a white loaf.tras un pan blanco.
