El Enamorado y La Muerte
Alanna
The Lover and Death
A dream I dreamed last night
Last night, while I was sleeping
I dreamed of my loves
Who fell asleep in my arms
I saw a lady so white
Whiter than the cold snow
How did you enter, my love?
How did you enter, my life?
The doors are closed
Windows and shutters
I am not the loving lover
DEATH, which God sends you
Oh, death, so strict!
Let me live one day!
I cannot give you a day
You have one hour of life
Quickly he gets up
Even faster he dressed
He is already going to the street
Where his love lived
Open the door for me, white one!
Open the door for me, girl!
How can I open the door for you?
If it is not the appointed time
My father did not go to the Palace
My mother is not asleep
If you don't open for me tonight
You would never open for me again
Death is looking for me
Next to you, life would be!
Go under the window
Where I embroidered and sewed
I will throw you a silk cord
So you can climb up
If the silk is not enough
I would add my braids
He is already climbing the rope
He is already touching the railing!
The silk rope breaks
And he falls like lead
Death is waiting for him
Below in the cold earth
Come on, lover
The time is up
