Paroles et traduction Maki - Mil y una noches

Mil y una noches

(Maki) No sale en los libros que la historia de esta tierra,
Esconde páginas secretas de bellas reinas moras cuenta:
Un viejo califa que recorre la Mezquita,
Recuerda tu sonrisa, pluma, papel, deprisa.
Una dulce niña mora de la morería me decía
Todos los días que sus ojos se podían clavar.
Clavar como espadas afiladas.
(Lamorena) Clavar como espada afiladas.
(Maki) Sultana mil veces, amor adormece,
Belleza que enloquece y me escuece.
Perfume que a los dioses enfurece,
Ayúdame sultana que mi alma perece,
Mil y unas noches.

(Lamorena) Mil y una noches tú y yo le robamos al sol,
La luna testigo de nuestro gran amor,
Sultana que fui, no quiero volar,
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.

(Maki) Príncipe Almohade que ha nacido porque sabe,
Que el destino le ha guardado, un tesoro esconde y grita,
Y entre sus columnas sus caricias se consuman,
Y le juran a la luna este secreto de amor:
Prometo sultana traerte cada noche la mañana,
Vestir de caricias nuestra cama,
Cantar la sinfonía que me inspira tu mirada.
(Lamorena) Que me inspira tu mirada.
(Maki) Prometo dichosa pintarte mariposas,
Y contarte leyendas de historias hermosas.
(Lamorena) Prometo mi rey, cada mañana.
(Maki) Prometo sultana, cada mañana.
(Lamorena) Mil y unas noches.

(Lamorena) Mil y una noches tú y yo le robamos al sol,
La luna testigo de nuestro gran amor,
Sultana que fui, no quiero volar,
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara llora cuando tú te vas.

A Thousand and One Nights

(Maki) It's not in the books that the story of this land,
Hides secret pages of beautiful Moorish queens:
An old caliph walking through the Mosque,
Remembers your smile, pen, paper, quickly.
A sweet Moorish girl from the Moorish quarter told me
Every day that her eyes could pierce.
Pierce like sharp swords.
(Lamorena) Pierce like sharp swords.
(Maki) A thousand times a sultana, love soothes,
A beauty that drives me mad and burns me.
A perfume that enrages the gods,
Help me, sultana, my soul is perishing,
A thousand and one nights.

(Lamorena) A thousand and one nights you and I steal from the sun,
The moon a witness to our great love,
A sultana I was, I don't want to fly,
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.

(Maki) A prince of the Almohades who was born because he knows,
That destiny has kept a treasure for him, he hides it and cries out,
And between its columns their caresses are consumed,
And they swear to the moon this secret of love:
I promise, sultana, to bring you the morning every night,
To dress our bed in caresses,
To sing the symphony that your gaze inspires in me.
(Lamorena) That my gaze inspires in me.
(Maki) I promise to paint butterflies for you, my beloved,
And to tell you legends of beautiful stories.
(Lamorena) I promise, my king, every morning.
(Maki) I promise, sultana, every morning.
(Lamorena) A thousand and one nights.

(Lamorena) A thousand and one nights you and I steal from the sun,
The moon a witness to our great love,
A sultana I was, I don't want to fly,
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Medina Azahara weeps when you go away.
