Luis Mariano "Zambra" lyrics

Translation to:en

Zambra

Por to' lo mal que conmigo te habías portaoHasta del Santo e tu nombre me había olvidao¡Ay, pero no pue ser!, todo será igual si te vuelvo a ver.

Gitana, tu zambra la Alhambra la viene a contarPorque aquel rey moro al dejarla se puso a llorar.No hay nada en Granada que pueda tu zambra olvidarCristianos y moros la hicieron del mismo cantar.

~ ~ ~

Quiero vivir en Granada pa' poder oírLa campana de la Vela cuando vi a dormir¡Ay, no permita Dios!, que por na' de na' no la sienta yo

España es la novia bonita del cante andaluzLa copla un camino de gloria pasando una cruz.El baile - un revuelo de faldas en el cielo azulY en medio del cielo, gitana, bailando estás tú.

¡Ay, pero no pue ser!, todo será igual si te vuelvo a ver.

Zambra 1.

Because you behaved so badly with meeven your saint's name I forgot.Oh, but it can't be so,everything will be the same if I see you again!

Gipsy girl, your 'zambra' the Alhambra is telling about it,'cause that Moorish King, when he left, he began to weep.There is nothing in Granada that can forget your zambra,Christians and Moors made it from the same melody.

~ ~ ~

I want to live in Granada so I can hearthe bell of the Vela when I go to sleep.Oh, God forbid, if just like that, I won't hear it!

Spain is the pretty bride of Andalusian chant:'la copla', a glorious path passing along a cross; 2.the dancing, an skirt commotion in the blue sky,and in the middle of the sky, gypsy girl, dancing are you.

Oh, but it can't be so,everything we'll be the same if I see you again!
