Malagueña Salerosa [English translation]

What beautiful eyes you have,

beneath those two eyebrows

beneath those two eyebrows

what beautiful eyes you have!

They love to watch me

but if you don’t let them,

but if you don’t let them,

not even to blink.

Graceful Malagueñan.

I long to kiss your lips,

I long to kiss your lips,

Graceful Malagueñan.

And to tell you, beautiful girl,

that you are stunning and bewitching,

that you are stunning and bewitching,

like the pureness of a rose,

like the pureness of a rose.

If, for being poor, you look down on me,

I agree you are right,

I agree you are right,

If, for being poor, you look down on me.

I don’t offer you riches.

I offer you my heart,

I offer you my heart,

in exchange for what I lack.
