Green I love you green

Green I love you green

Oh yes

I love you green

But who will come And whence

She is there on her balcony

Green flesh Green hair

Dreaming of the bitter sea

Green

I love you green

I love you green

Green I love you green

Green wind Green boughs

The ship on the sea

The horse on the mountain

Green I love you green

With the shadow round the waist

She dreams upon her balcony

Green eyes Black hair

Her body of cold silver

Green

I love you green

Green I love you green

I love you green

Great frosty stars

Follow the fish from the shadows

Winding its way at dawn

Green I love you green

I've always resisted love But this suitor

Has stolen my heart

What is love

When it breaks your heart

Beautiful Sara

My Sara's eyes

Pierce like daggers

My Sara's eyes

Pierce like daggers

They drive some mad

Others not

Oh my God Can it be so

Yes Sara her hair pulled back

Come nightfall Walks abandoned

Her feelings hurt

My father is Don Juan

I was a stone I lost my centre

They threw me into the sea

They threw me into the sea

And long after

I found my centre

I wanted to trade but she refused

A dotted scarf

For a plain one

Pearls by the thousand

How can the waves...

Not harbour pearls by the thousand

By the sea

I saw you weeping the other night

But could not comfort you

Can I get some service here

Foreigners are always in charge

A speculator cares nothing

For the earth

As would an owner

In San Telmo it appears on the beaches

And the sun shines down

Copla is everlasting

And it touches the face of God

For Seville

Seville and Jerez

Are the eighth wonder of the garden of my love

Copla is the music of the tonadilla

So that those who can understand fall on their knees

I bring four capes

Piquer Juanita and the sun

And the legacy of the great Paquera

And Lola wearing

The comb and mantilla

Jerez and Seville

Are the eighth wonder of the garden of my love

Copla is the music of the tonadilla

So that those who can understand fall on their knees

I bring four capes

Piquer Juanita and the sun

And the legacy of the great Paquera

And Lola wearing

The comb and mantilla

And with the voice of these four colours

Spring is bedecked

Dolores became Lola Flores

And the gypsy song La Paquera

Forget you

Not love you

I tell you all

That would mean

I have departed this life

Your hair

Is like silk

Your mouth like jasmin

And your eyes enigmas

When they gaze upon me

When you sleep alone

Your face is more beautiful

Than the light of dawn

And I ask

Yes I ask

As if by order

Of the governor

That we find a room to rent

For you to live at my side

Yes that we find a room to rent

For you to live at my side

You are beautiful

You are pure

You are the mother

Of God

Great morning star

You are beautiful

You are pure

You are the mother of God

They call me

The fool

For never

Do I say a word

Call me crazy

But beware

For I am mad

Raving mad

Someone's knocking at the door

Calling my name

I don't know

Who it can be

Is it the father of the boy

Who in bed

Slept

Arise

Gypsy

And wash

This cloth

So that I may not see

All the blood

The others have drained

From my body

Look how beautiful he is

Look at this gypsy dance

Without you there is no colour

Praise God

For making my life so wonderful

Long live the real gypsies who make everything a dance

This song is for you

Like father like son

What a family of dancers

This is where you come from

My Carpetilla

Beautiful Cuba I love you

Beautiful Cuba I love you for your unparalleled beauty

How beautiful you looked when I made you dance

I found you even more beautiful and ravishing

Than the flower

Than the flower of coffee

At daybreak when the sky lights up

Throughout the camp resounds the joyous call of the bugle

The Cuban troops awaken to line up

The sergeant hastens to call the roll

And I answer " here"

While thinking

Of you my love

And as the sun rises

The sky is tinged with purple

And we hear the wind whispering

Through the Cuban mangroves

The parrot perched on its branch is arrayed in its beautiful plumage

The green reeds

Dew-scented

So proud of their feathers

Form a mantle

On the riverbanks

Spring

Flashes in his eyes

Like the myriad stars

That light up the dawn

The roosters dance gracefully

To the rhythm of Romero's paintbrush

To the rhythm of Romero's paintbrush

Spring

Flashes in his eyes

Like the myriad stars

That light up the dawn

The roosters dance gracefully

To the rhythm of Romero's paintbrush

To the rhythm of Romero's paintbrush

Ah life...

My life...

My life is fading

I tied my tongue in a knot

Since you want me to be quiet

I tied my tongue in a knot

These people

Can make it speak

The water is clear So clear

When the rain falls

Tell me honestly

If you really love me

Green rosemary

Grows at the foot of the mountain

Nothing matters but your words

The earth doesn't need to know

Life is so hard

It has hurt me so much

I love you so

Oh how

I love you

I love you more than life itself

Without you

My life

Is meaningless

The girl with the polka-dot dress

For a scrap of bread

Sings with all her heart

The girl of la bamba

Wears a red shawl

She is my brother's betrothed

And soon my sister-in-law

The love I had for you

Is dust

In the wind

Please don't cry for me

Magdalena is not lost

Magdalena is with me

Magdalena is not lost

Magdalena is with me

The dream drifts away

Like a sailboat on the sea

Nothing can be sown

In the depths of a dream

Time drifts on a dream

Plunges into its abyss

Today and yesterday subsisted

On dark flowers of mourning

On the same column

Time and dreams kiss

The child's moan

Joins the croak of the old

If the dream creates walls

In the plain of time

Times persuades it

It is newborn

Today I remember your hands

Your smile your eyes

They were like two flashes of lightning

They are now two shattered skies

Sleep sleep

Sleep in my arms

And dream

Sleep sleep

Sleep in my arms

And fly

Our caresses are made of marble

When I want to take you in my arms

Marble caresses

Mirrored marble of grief

Our caresses are cold as marble

When I want to take you in my arms

Our caresses are made of clay

Our kisses are made of clay

The clay of tears and the earth

Sleep sleep

Sleep in my arms

And dream

Sleep in my arms

And fly

Sleep in my arms

And let your heart beat

Sleep sleep

Sleep in my arms

Outside of time

I walked along the road of history

And encountered the morning breeze

I felt the warmth permeate my body come nightfall

And the cold burn my lips in the early morning

I took refuge in the arms of memory

And a rain of jubilation poured down my face

A rainbow of love caressed my skin

My eyes filled with white clouds

And I could sing of love

Today I fly away

Fearless

Soon I will join you

And I could sing of love my love

Today I fly away without fear of joining you

I am very close to you

How the flowers would love

To drink from the same source as I

How the flowers would love to

For they drink the water

Of the earth

I drink water from the sky

Source of greatness

Of absence

I don't want to remember

You will be by my side and accompany me

Listen to the melody of love

It resembles that of my heart

It's like the song of the wind

And when the day dawns

You'll want me to dance for you

From the day you were born

You mother sung by your crib

And I'd like to be a bullfighter

To give you the moon

And a black-velvet bull

Forget the past

No matter what they say we should have no regrets

When I walked through your door

I took pieces of paper

And they turned into skunks

What a beautiful jacket

It looks so good on you

Tell me truthfully

Where you slept tonight

You're not by my side

I want to die

The bells toll

Make them stop bell-ringer

Stop the bells from ringing

The bells toll

She was a queen to me

But she was no queen

Simply a poor gypsy

I sell Coin paper

Softer than velvet

From which all smokers come

To smoke rosemary flowers

I sell cigarettes and matches

And my basket is filled with flowers
