The girl with the pretty faceC
is out picking olivesD
The wind playboy of towersE
grabs her around the waistF
Four riders passed byG
on Andalusian poniesH
with blue and green jacketsI
and big dark capesJ
'Come to Cordoba muchacha '-
The girl won't listen to themK
Three young bullfighters passedL
slender in the waistF
with jackets the color of orangesM
and swords of ancient silverN
'Come to Sevilla muchacha '-
The girl won't listen to themK
When the afternoon had turnedO
dark brown with scattered lightP
a young man passed by wearingQ
roses and myrtle of the moonR
'Come to Granada inuchacha '-
And the girl won't listen to himS
The girl with the pretty faceC
keeps on picking olivesD
with the grey arm of the windT
wrapped around her waistF

La ni a del bello rostroA
est cogiendo aceitunaU
El viento gal n de torresX
la prende por la cinturaA
Pasaron cuatro jinetesX
sobre jacas andaluzasX
con trajes de azul y verdeF
con largas capas oscurasX
'Vente a C rdoba muchacha '-
La ni a no los escuchaV
Pasaron tres torerillosX
delgaditos de cinturaA
con trajes color naranjaY
y espadas de plata antiguaY
'Vente a C rdoba muchacha '-
La ni a no los escuchaV
Cuando la tarde se pusoX
morada con lux difusaX
pas un joven que llevabaG
rosas y mirtos de lunaY
'Vente a Granada muchacha '-
Y la ni a no lo escuchaV
La ni a del bello rostroA
sigue cogiendo aceitunaY
con el brazo gris del vientoF
ce ido por la cinturaA
Arbol arbolW
Seco y verdF
