Zambra [English translation]

Get away from the window, because I'll sigh

They are made out of flames,

and can burn you out.

What do you want from me?

what do you want from me?

Even the water I drink

must be requested to you

Mother has a saucepan

mother has a saucepan

so every time she shakes it 1

the rice grains jump out

so every time she shakes it,

the rice grains jump out

And when Death's here

don't say it to me right away

because I always fool her

and my heart has broken.

Get away from the window,

because I'll sigh

They are made out of flames,

and can burn you out.

What do you want from me?

what do you want from me?

Even the water I drink

must be requested to you

1. I'm not even sure what exactly ''resolte'' does mean in Spanish, it must be from a dialect because it's not even in the dictionaire, so I tell it from context
