Granada
Mark Vincent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mi cantar, se vuelve gitano cuando es para ti
Mi cantar, hecho de fantasía,
Mi cantar, flor de melancolía
Que yo te vengo a dar...
The dawn in the sky greets the day with a sigh for Granada.
For she can remember the splendour that once was Granada.
Entranced by the beauty before me,
Entranced by a land full of sunshine and song.
And when day is done and the sun starts to set in Granada,
I envy the blush of the snow-clad Sierra Nevada,
So soon it will welcome the stars
While a thousand guitars play a soft Habanera.
Granada, tu tierra está llena
De lindas mujeres, de sangre y de sol...
For soon it will welcome the stars
While a thousand guitars play a soft Habanera.
Granada, tu tierra está llena
De lindas mujeres, de sangre, de sol...
