La Salamanca

Los Fronterizos Los Fronterizos

The Salamanca

With the devil on her hips, Mandinga arrived,
Sulfuring the moonlit night.
She dismounted from the horse and the dance began,
With her tail marking the beat (repeat last two lines)

A rococo from the island sang his love
To a toad dressed in blue.
Carboncillo danced, showing the flower,
That brings light back to the blind (repeat last two lines)

Chorus

Pit where dawn dies when it rises
Salamanca of the native hill.
And in moonlit nights it is often felt
Mandinga and the devils singing (repeat last two lines)

Riding, a broom crossed the indigo
Of the skies the great witch;
The owl on her shoulder and the big fork
Aiming at the Southern Cross (repeat last two lines)

A bearded armadillo played the violin
And a skunk with a tenor voice,
Tore the silence with a yaraví,
That Mandinga taught him to sing (repeat last two lines)
