Original lyrics
Una muchacha en Selanica [Saloniki] Que la quijeron castigar] Por unos negros yapraquitos Que non los supo bien guizar. Su madre de ser muy ravioza Un chaqueton le fue a dar Por estos negros yapraquitos Que non los supo bien guizar. Ya se alevanto Zimbulucha Ya se va onde'l Dayan Que le de la licencia Que Turca se va voltar. Judia mas que judia Turca se fue a voltar Por unos negros yapraquitos Que non los supo bien guizar.
Translated lyrics
Notes
Zimbuluchu is to be punished since she did not take care when cooking, and she spoiled the cabbish dish "yapraquito". She threatens her mother that she will become turkish and will be no longer jewish if her mother will really punish her. The text is from the booklet of a CD by Helhne Engel
