Granada [English translation]

Granada, land of dreams for me

My song becomes gypsy-like

When it is for you.

My song made of fantasy

My song a melancholy flower

That I come to give to you.

Granada, blood-stained soil

In bull fight afternoons

Woman who preserves the enchantment

Of Moorish eyes.

I dream of you rebellious, a gypsy

Covered with flowers

And I kiss your scarlet mouth

Juicy apple

That speaks to me of love affairs

Granada, manola,* sung

In precious verses

I have nothing else to give you

Than a bouquet of roses

Of roses of sweet fragrance

That framed the dark virgin.

Granada your land is full

Of lovely women

Of blood and sun.
