Ay madre, buscai me con quien durmire [duerma]. Ay hija, Duerme te en la terraza. Ay madre, temo a la luna llena [entera], y sola non durmire, sola non duerma. .... Ay hija, Duerme te en la cocina. Ay madre, mi temo de la vecina, ... .... Ay hija, Duerme te en el pozo [fuente]. Alli madre, encontrare a mi amado [seqor esposo] y con el me durmire, con el me duerma.
Translated lyrics
Oh mother, find me somebody to sleep with. Oh daughter, sleep on the terrace. Oh mother, I fear the full moon and I won't sleep alone. .... Oh daughter, Sleep in the kitchen. Oh mother, I fear the neighbour. .... Oh daughter, Sleep in the well. There, mother I will find my love and with him I will sleep.
