A GIRL IN THE LAND OF THE MOORS

Jota, popular song of Villafáfila

 

 

 

 

A girl in Moorish land

she had a bowling ball gown.

with the air that she wore

bowling pins and balls bobbed at him.

 

There you have it danced

don't take off the apron;

Look, there is no other

the poor unfortunate

 

A girl in Moorish land

she had a bowling ball gown.

with the air that she wore

bowling pins and balls bobbed at him.

 

how do you want me to give you

what I can give you,

the ribbon of my apron

If I can't remove it.

 

A girl in Moorish land

she had a bowling ball gown.

with the air that she wore

bowling pins and balls bobbed at him.

 

They say he has stolen a chalice,

Jesus what a lie is that!

since I was baptized,

He has not re-entered the church.

 

A girl in Moorish land

she had a bowling ball gown.

with the air that she wore

bowling pins and balls bobbed at him.

 

I give you farewell

stuck in a hazelnut,

with this I do not sing anymore,

I leave it for tomorrow.

 

A girl in Moorish land

she had a bowling ball gown.

with the air that she wore

bowling pins and balls bobbed at him.
