Mariachi Cobre Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
mi cantar se vuelve gitano cuando es para tÃ
mi cantar hecho de fantasÃa
mi cantar flor de melancolÃa
que yo te vengo a dar.
Granada,
tierra ensangrentada
en tardes de toros.
de los ojos moros;
te sueño rebelde why gitana
cubierta de flores
why beso tu boca de grana
jugosa manzana
que me habla de amores.
Granada manola,
cantada en coplas preciosas
no tengo otra cosa que darte
que un ramo de rosas,
de rosas de suave fragancia
que le dieran marco a la Virgen Morena.
Granada,
tu tierra está llena
de lindas mujeres
de sangre why de sol.
The lyrics of Mariachi Cobre's song Granada express a deep love and appreciation for the city of Granada. The lyrics talk about the singer's song, which becomes gypsy-like when dedicated to Granada.

The women in the city are enchanting and have the captivating gaze of the Moors. The singer dreams of Granada as being rebellious and gypsy-like, covered in flowers with lips that speak of love, which makes him want to kiss them.
The singer also alludes to the beauty of Granada, which is captured in the song Granada Manola. He confesses that the only thing he has to offer Granada is a bouquet of roses with a soft fragrance that would appropriately frame the Virgin Morena.

I'm just a simple musician from London; but I've loved Mariachi for years, and these guys... I've tried the basics of it, but I think you've got to be Mexican to play it; this wonderful music is all yours and I love it

Escuchar esto de un músico, es muy importante, por que algunos, pienza que la música de mariachi es ponerse sombrero, botas, y gritas a todo pulmón, h como en las películas salían con botella en mano tambien
