De Plata [English translation]

When I die, I make one request to you,

that with your braids,

braids of raven hair,

you tie my hands.*

The love I have for you,

were it of silver,

there would be no one richer than me

in all of Spain.

*It was traditional in some parts of Andalusia to bury the dead with a black ribbon tied around their hands.

a less literal translation:

My love, I have only one request,

when I die, don't bury me with my hands tied with black ribbons,

but with your braids of raven hair,

because if my love for you were made of silver,

there would be no one richer in all of Spain.
