Españolerías [English translation]

Courtyard that smells of romance,

Of couplets and roses, and orange blossoms.

The Spanish night escapes,

that with its darkness knew how to cover you.(x2)

Like a carnation that bursts,

Your blood-red mouth gave me a kiss,

And in that kiss there remained

The nights, the couplets, the roses and me.

Behind the lace screen

The flower pots and flowers could hear

in a pleasant sigh, a sigh from the soul,

what he wanted to tell you.

ahhhahhh...

The clacking of castanets, the courtyard

which the gypsy filled with celebration.

A kiss that has been mostly mine,

That from your mouth, made me tremble.

Something that was more than a kiss,

Something that is more than kissing.

A kiss that left in my life, guitars

and couplets and orange blossoms.(x2)
