La Malagueña
Trio Tariácuri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Que bonitos ojos tienes
debajo de esas dos cejas
debajo de esas dos cejas
que bonitos ojos tienes

ellos me quieren mirar
pero si tu no los dejas
pero si tu no los dejas
ni siquiera parpadear

malagueña salerosa
besar tus labios quisiera
besar tus labios quisiera
malagueña salerosa
con el cantor
de una rosa

si por pobre me desprecias
yo te concedo razón
yo te concedo razón
si por pobre me desprecias

yo no te ofrezco riquezas
te ofrezco mi corazón
te ofrezco mi corazón
a cambio de mis pobrezas
(ahí compadrito)

y decirte niña hermosa
que eres linda y hechicera
que eres linda y hechicera
como el cantor de una rosa
y decirte niña hermosa

que eres linda y hechicera
que eres linda y hechicera
como el cantor de una rosa




como el cantor
de una rosa

J’adore cette version de La Malagueña. Je l’écoute souvent. Les chanteurs sont formidables. On sent tout le plaisir qu’ils ont à l’interpréter.
