Siesta [English translation]

In my village, when the sun beats down on the houses,

all of the people close their eyes and their shutters.

When siesta time arrives, celebration begins for me.

Instead of sleeping, I go walking alone with my love.

In my village, when the sun beats down on the houses,

we kiss in the square as if it were midnight.

The white air trembles and burns but, if she speaks to me,

I feel refreshed, I seem to fly, to stay by the seashore.

She gives me cherries and lilacs stolen from gates,

and puts crowns of kisses around my hair.

Like a king and queen, we cross the city

but people don't know it.
