Lyrics and translation Alejandro Fernández - Granada




Granada
Granada
Granada, tierra soñada por mi
Granada, a land I've dreamt of
Mi cantar se vuelve gitano cuando es para ti
My song becomes gypsy when it's for you
Mi cantar, hecho de fantasía
My song, made of fantasy
Mi cantar, flor de melancolía
My song, a flower of melancholy
Que yo te vengo a dar
That I come to give to you
Granada, tierra ensangrentada en tardes de toros;
Granada, land stained with blood on bullfighting afternoons;
Mujer que conserva el embrujo de los ojos moros,
Woman who preserves the enchantment of Moorish eyes,
Te sueño rebelde y gitana, cubierta de flores
I dream of you rebellious and gypsy, covered in flowers
Y beso tu boca de grana, jugosa manzana
And I kiss your crimson mouth, juicy apple
Que me habla de amores
That speaks to me of love
Granada, manola cantada en coplas preciosas
Granada, manola sung in beautiful coplas
No tengo otra cosa que darte que un ramo de rosas
I have nothing else to give you but a bouquet of roses
De rosas de suave fragancia
Of roses with a soft fragrance
Que le dieron marco a la virgen morena
That framed the dark-skinned Virgin
Granada, tu tierra está llena
Granada, your land is full
De lindas mujeres, de canto y de sol
Of beautiful women, of song and sunshine
Granada, manola cantada en coplas preciosas
Granada, manola sung in beautiful coplas
No tengo otra cosa que darte un ramo de rosas
I have nothing else to give you but a bouquet of roses
De rosas de suave fragancia
Of roses with a soft fragrance
Que le dieron marco a la virgen morena
That framed the dark-skinned Virgin
Granada, tu tierra está llena
Granada, your land is full
De lindas mujeres, de sangre y de sol
Of beautiful women, of blood and sunshine
