Enterr� mi fantas�a
Una guitarra, y una gitana canta
Canta mi Andaluc�a
De llegar a Casablanca
T� me bailas en la playa
Con tus ojos negros, chiquita
Y tu boca enamorada
Enamorada como t� (como t�)
Enamorada como t� (como t�)
Como t�, como t�, hay nadie como t�...
yalabina yalla

nifrah win ool, masha allah

De granada a Casablanca
Enterr� mi fantas�a
Una guitarra y una gitana canta
Canta mi Andaluc�a
De granada a Casablanca
Enterr� mi fantas�a
Una guitarra y una gitana canta

The lyrics of Alabina's song Alabina describe a journey from Granada to Casablanca, where the singer buries their fantasy. The imagery of a guitar and a singing gypsy reflects the rich cultural background in Andalucia, and the singer seems to long for a romantic love as they describe being danced with on the beach by a girl with black eyes and an enamored mouth. The repeated phrase "enamorada como tú" emphasizes the uniqueness and intensity of this love interest, as the singer highlights the fact that there is nobody else quite like them.
The chorus, which repeats throughout the song, doesn't seem to have a specific meaning in the traditional sense of a lyric, but rather serves as an uplifting phrase that matches the rhythmic and danceable melody of the song. It is full of energy and encourages movement, with "yalla" being an Arabic word for "let's go" and "masha allah" meaning "what God has willed." The use of Arabic words seems to suggest a fusion of cultures, adding to the multicultural vibe of the song.
Overall, Alabina's Alabina is a vibrant, dynamic song that celebrates cultural diversity and a romantic fantasy that brings together people from different backgrounds.

The year 2023 is approaching, and I have been listening to this song for years. The splendor of melodies and the wonderful mixture between Middle Eastern and Latin music is truly a musical masterpiece that will not be repeated.

@adroaldoribeiro4529
Spanish has this sorcery that can't be repeated. Mixed with arabic influence, giving birth to the andalucian cadence, it is pure melodic gold
@siaitsme6800
Totally agree with you.

Partially true, this is not Latin music at all, it still comes from the Muslim world, not only the Arabic part but also flamenco. This is why they accompany each other so well, they're basically the same music evolved differently over time. Still a masterpiece, agreed.
