Lyrics and translation Matéria Prima - Flores Blancas




Flores Blancas
White Flowers
Flores blancas en el pelo
White flowers in your hair
Y esa forma de decir te quiero
And that way of saying I love you
Que le arranca un suspiro al aire (bis)
That makes the air sigh (chorus)
Viene por el cerro alto
She comes down the high hill
Todavía duerme el alba
While the dawn is still sleeping
Carmela la de las flores
Carmela of the flowers
Mi jazmín en su canasta
My jasmine in her basket
Viene alborotando el aire
She comes stirring the air
Viene sonsacando al alba
She comes cajoling the dawn
Y el rocío que la oye
And the dew that hears her
Le pide sitio a la escarcha
Asks the frost for space
Para ver su pelo al viento
To see her hair in the wind
Saludando a la mañana
Greeting the morning
Y el agua del río por verla
And the water of the river, to see her
De su cauce se levanta
Rises from its bed
Carmen, te puso la luna un vestido de hilo y nácar
Carmen, the moon gave you a dress of thread and nacre
Y las estrellas del cielo p'a ti
And the stars of the sky for you
Horquillas de luz y plata
Hairpins of light and silver
Flores blancas en el pelo
White flowers in your hair
Y esa forma de decir te quiero
And that way of saying I love you
Que le arranca un suspiro al aire (bis)
That makes the air sigh (chorus)
El calé piel de aceituna
The gypsy with olive-skinned skin
Espera a su flor gitana
Waits for his gypsy flower
Y al pasar cerquita suya
And as he passes close by her
Siente un nudo en la garganta
He feels a lump in his throat
Y mientras baila la aurora
And as the dawn dances
A su Carmela le canta
He sings to his Carmela
Carmen, te puso la luna un vestido de hilo y nácar...
Carmen, the moon gave you a dress of thread and nacre...
Flores blancas en el pelo
White flowers in your hair
Y esa forma de decir te quiero
And that way of saying I love you
Que le arranca un suspiro al aire (bis)
That makes the air sigh (chorus)
