Original lyrics
No la puso su madre cosa ninguna No la puso su madre cosa ninguna La cara de esta novia es como la luna La onsa de la gracia a como la vendere? No la vendo por onza ni por cuarteron Se la doy a mi amado de mi corazon La onza de la gracia a como la vendere' No la puso su madre ni al bayalde No la puso su madre ni al bayalde La cara de esta novia es como el esmalte La onza de la gracia a como la vendere'
Translated lyrics
Notes
This is a Sephardic Moroccan bride song from Tangiers. There is a hidden deeper religious meaning behind the text.It is about a bride who has nothing but her beauty and loveliness. She should not be given away for money..only for true love. But the bride in this song is also the Shabbath. This wedding song is related to the Marocian custom to hang coins at the bride's cloth.
