Original lyrics
Dia de shabat mi madre la horica dando dos fuego sali' al Agua Mueva en Beyaz Kule Que lo sepas mancevicos Los pecados del shabat se ensanyo el Patron del mundo mos mando' a dDudalar. Las casicas estan quemando el fuego sale al cielo Las mozicas van llorando l'anxugar se les quemo' tres palombas van volando haciendo el truicion Mos quedimos arrazados sin tener habitacion
Translated lyrics
On the day of Shabbath mother the clock struck two. The fire broke at New Water in Beyaz Kule. You should know children the sins against Shabbath enraged the Master of the World he sends us to pain. The houses are burning the fire reaches the heavens the girls cry the trousseaus are on fire. three pigeons fly up in their suffering. We've lost our roots and are without shelter.
Notes
This narrative song is about a famous Burning in Thessaloniki (Greece). Following the tradition the fire started in the Jewish Quartier because a girl started to cook during the Shabbath.
