Granada [English translation]

Granada, land of my dreams

My song becomes a gypsy one when it is for you

My song, made of fantasy

My song, a meloncholy flower

That I have come to give you

Granada, bloodstained land of afternoon bullfights

A woman who preserves the spell of her dark eyes

I dream of you, rebellious gypsy covered in flowers

And I kiss your ruby red lips

Juicy apple that tells me about love

Granada, "manola",1sung in precious verses

I have nothing else to give you but a bouquet of roses

Of roses with a delicate fragrance

that will surround the Dark Virgin

Granada, your land is full

Of beautiful women, of blood and sun

Of roses with a delicate fragrance

that will surround the Dark Virgin

Granada, your land is full

Of beautiful women, of blood and sun

1. Madrid woman of the people, characterized by flamboyant zarzuela-type costume
