A Miña Burriña
Eu caseime por un ano, por saber que vida era
O ano vaise acabando, solteiriña quen me dera
Retrouso
A miña avoiña por noitar no miño
Anda enfariñada morrendo co frio
Morrendo co frio cando vai xiada
A miña avoiña meteuse na cama
Eu caseime e xuxeteime, nunca che me xuxetara
De solteira roupa nova de casada remendada
Retrouso
A miña avoiña por noitar no miño
A fontiña vou por auga, ó muiño por moere
E a tua casa por verte e nunca te puiden vere
E nunca te puiden vere ailalelo ailalalo
Solteiriña, non te cases, aproveite a boa vida
Que eu ben sei dunha casada que chora de arrepentida
Retrouso
A miña avoiña por noitar no miño
Eu queríame casar-e, miña nai dime que é cedo
Ela como está casada non sabe as ganas que eu teño
Retrouso
A miña avoiña por noitar no miño
My Little Donkey
I got married for a year, to know what life was like
The year is ending, single girl, how I wish
Chorus
My little donkey for spending the night in the river
Goes shivering, dying from the cold
Dying from the cold when it freezes
My little donkey gets into bed
I got married and I struggled, you never struggled with me
New clothes for a single woman, patched for a married one
Chorus
My little donkey for spending the night in the river
I go to the spring for water, to the mill to grind
And to your house to see you, and I never could see you
And I never could see you ailalelo ailalalo
Single girl, don't get married, enjoy the good life
For I know well of a married woman who cries in regret
Chorus
My little donkey for spending the night in the river
I wanted to get married, my mother tells me it's too soon
She, being married, doesn't know the desires I have
Chorus
My little donkey for spending the night in the river
