Tonadas de Ordeño

Dark and gloomy night
Lend me your clarity
To follow in the footsteps
Of an ungrateful one who is leaving
Tomorrow in the morning
Cover your courtyard with flowers
For the visit
Of the Virgin of Sorrows

Little carnation, little carnation, little carnation, little carnation
Morning star
Bright morning star of the day
Why didn't you wake me up
When my soul was leaving

Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly

Up there on that hill
I have a well of clear water
Where the Virgin washes
Her little feet and face
Water cloud, water cloud, water cloud
