I Am From Andalusia

De Andalucía Yo Soy

To be funny in lifePa' se' gracioso en la vida
And sing with feelingY cantar con sentimiento
You have to be from AndalusiaHay que ser de Andalucía
And have temperamentY echarle temperamento

I spread my songsYo reparto mis canciones
Throughout the whole of SpainPor toita España entera
Singing with joyCantando con alegría
With art, spirit, and traditionCon arte, duende y solera

I am from AndalusiaDe Andalucía yo soy
Where art is a good thingDonde el arte es cosa buena
Where you have two drinksDonde te toma dos chatos
And forget your sorrowsY te olvidas de las penas

I am from AndalusiaDe Andalucía yo soy
Where even the sky is darkDonde hasta el cielo es moreno
Where they swear by rightDonde juran por derecho
Where they swear by rightDonde juran por derecho
To say how much I love youPa' decir cuanto te quiero

I was born a 'choquera'Que yo he nacido choquera
Because Huelva was my cradlePorque Huelva fue mi cuna
The land of the fierce fandangoLa del fandango bravío
Made of Sun and MoonHecho de Sol y de Luna

I put all my soulYo pongo toda mi alma
When I sing to AndalusiaCuando canto a Andalucía
For its art and beautyPor su arte y su belleza
Because it's a land of joyPorque es tierra de alegría

I am from AndalusiaDe Andalucía yo soy
Where art is a good thingDonde el arte es cosa buena
Where you have two drinksDonde te toma dos chatos
And forget your sorrowsY te olvidas de las penas

Where even the sky is darkDonde hasta el cielo es moreno
Where they swear by rightDonde juran por derecho
