Andalucia
Sya Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Que tristeza Andalucía
Cuando el sol brilla de alegría
Y tristeza de mi Andalucía
Tus casas blancas donde lloran
Tus ojitos blancos Sevilla
Corren lágrima de sangre
Sobre tu vestido
Bordado de colores de Andalucía

Vienes a caballo
Bajando el monte
Suenan las Campanas de mi Giralda

Hoy quieren ir hasta la muerte
Dos hombres por ella
Van gritando por las calles de Sevilla
Que pena Andalucía

Cuando el sol brilla de alegría
Y tristeza de mi Andalucía
Piel morena tus ojos brillan
Doloridos de tanta tristeza
Cuando el sol brilla de alegría
Y tristeza de mi Andalucía
Tus casas blancas donde lloran
Tus ojitos blancos Sevilla

Andalucía, Andalucía
Tanta historia por esa envidia
Andalucía vestida de negro
Van a morir en la Plaza de Triana
Andalucía, Andalucía
Tanta historia por esa envidia
Andalucía vestida de negro
Van a morir en la Plaza de Triana
Andalucía, Andalucía
Tanta historia por esa envidia
Andalucía vestida de negro
Van a morir en la Plaza de Triana
Andalucía, Andalucía
Tanta historia por esa envidia




Andalucía vestida de negro
Van a morir en la Plaza de Triana
