Paroles et traduction Luar Na Lubre - A Frol da Iauga

A Frol da Iauga

Madrugada de san Xoan,
Madrugada máis garrida,
Que baila o sol cando nace,
E rí cando morre o día.

¿Onde vai nosa señora,
Onde vai Santa María?
-Vai cara a banda do mar,
Vai cara a banda da ría.

¿Que dis a virxe, que dis,
Que dis Santa María?
-¿Cal será a meniña, cal
Que colla a frol d'augoa fria?

-Non será dama nin deuda,
Que será a princesa Aldina,
A princesa namorada
Filla do rei de Galicia

Non hai outra coma ela,
Tan feitiña e tan bonita
Aqueles seus ollos craros
Do color d'augoa da ría.
Soio ti, Aldina, serás
Quen leve a frol d'augoa fria.
Soio ti, Aldina, serás
Quen leve a frol d'augoa fria.
Érguete do leito, nena,
Ven cara a banda do mar,
Qu'anque ti veñas soíña
En compaña has de tornar.
Na torre do real palacio
Anque inda está lonxe o día
Móvense o liños dun leito
Algunha xente se erguía
É a princesa! Deu-la garde!
Era a moi garrida Aldina,
Que vai o día de San Xoán,
Cata-la frol d'augoa fría.

The Flower of the Dew

On Saint John's eve,
On the most merry eve,
The sun dances when it rises,
And laughs when the day dies.

Where does Our Lady go,
Where does Saint Mary go?
-She's heading towards the sea,
She's heading towards the ria.

What does the Virgin say, what does,
What does Saint Mary say?
-¿Which girl will be the one,
That will pluck the dew flower?

-She won't be a lady or a debtor,
She'll be the princess Aldina,
The princess in love
Daughter of the king of Galicia

There's no other like her,
So charming and so pretty
Those clear eyes of hers,
The color of the water in the ria.
Only you, Aldina, will be
The one to take the dew flower.
Only you, Aldina, will be
The one to take the dew flower.
Get out of bed, girl,
Come to the edge of the sea,
Although you come alone
You will not return alone.
In the tower of the royal palace
Although day is still far off
The sheets on a bed move,
Someone is getting out of bed
It's the princess! She's up!
It was the very pretty Aldina,
Who rises on Saint John's day,
To seek the dew flower.
