Paroles et traduction Fortuna - Una Tarde de Verano

Una Tarde de Verano

Una tarde de verano pasi' por la moreria
Y vi una mora lavando al pie de una fuente fria
Yo la dije mora linda yo la dije mora bella
Deja beber mis caballos esas aguas cristalinas
No soy mora caballero que soy de espanya nacida
Que me cautivaron moros dias de pascua florida
Si quieres venir conmigo a Espanya te llevaria
Y la ropa caballero donde yo la dejaria?
Lo que es de seda y lana en mis caballos se iria
Y lo que no sirva nada por el rio tornaria
Al llegar por esos campos la ninya llora y suspira
Por que lloras ninya linda por que lloras ninya bella?
Lloro porque en estos campos mi padre a cazar venia
Con mi hermanito Alejandro y toda su compania
Abrid puertas y ventanas balcones y galerias
Que por traer una esposa os traigo una hermana mia

A Summer Afternoon

One summer afternoon I happened to pass by the Moorish quarter
And I saw a Moorish woman washing her clothes by a cold fountain
I said to her, pretty Moorish woman, I said to her beautiful Moorish woman
Let my horses drink from those crystalline waters
I am no Moorish woman, sir, I am of Spanish birth
The Moors captured me on the day of Easter
If you would like to come with me to Spain, I would take you with me
And the clothes, sir, where would I leave them?
All that is of silk and wool, you can take on your horses
And what is of no use, I would just throw into the river
As they reach those fields, the girl weeps and sighs
Why do you weep, pretty girl, why do you weep, beautiful girl?
I weep because it was in these fields that my father used to come hunting
With my little brother, Alexander, and all his company
Open the gates and windows, the balconies and galleries
Because I bring you a wife, I bring you a sister of mine
