El Emigrante
Antonio Molina
The Emigrant
I'm going to make you a rosary
With your ivory teeth
So I can kiss him
When I'm away from you
On his divine accounts
Made with margo and jasmine
I will pray for protection
The one who is in Sai
Goodbye my beloved Spain
I carry you inside my soul
Although I am an emigrant
I will never be able to forget you in my life
When I left my land
I turned my face crying
Because what I wanted most
I was leaving it behind me
He had as a companion
To my virgin of San Gil
A memory and a sorrow
And an ivory rosary
Goodbye my beloved Spain
I carry you inside my soul
Although I am an emigrant, I have never been
Life I will be able to forget you
I am a poor emigrant
And I bring to this strange land
On my chest a banner
With the joy of Spain
With my country and with my girlfriend
And my virgin of San Gil
And my rosary of beads I would like to die
