Always the Cordoban hat has been
the supreme hat because of its grace and smartness,
for bullfighters, flamenco singers and romanies
sported it in the most gypsy way.
Lagartijo, Fraschuelo, Machaquito and Espartero
carries it with pride, this classical hat.
The hat, the hat with broad brim
with which I which decorate my head,
I wear it and with it I proudly
declare its smartness.
There is nothing more authentic and Spanish
nor anything that equals its beauty
because the sun's rays
baptised its smartness.
When I go to the bullfights in Jerez
I gladly display my hat
and as I go by "olé"s can be heard,
and they applaud me much more than the bulls.
And if I go with my very gipsy mount to the trial
I'm the king of teh party with my classical hat.
The hat, the hat with broad brim
with which I which decorate my head,
I wear it and with it I proudly
declare its smartness.
There is nothing more authentic and Spanish
nor anything that equals its beauty
because the sun's rays
baptised its smartness.
