Coplera de Madrugada
Alberto Danza
Early Morning Copla
They say you're killing me
Wine from the early morning
The wine enters my body
Like a cry of hope
The wine enters my body
Like a cry of hope
At the bottom of the glass
My fate is sealed
At the bottom of the glass
My fate is sealed
And with every sip I take
My soul flourishes and sings
When the stars kiss
The strings of my guitar
I take step after step
Seeking to gain distances
I tire the horse with pleasure
My sorrows are arched
They say you're killing me
Wine from the early morning
When a sorrow advances on me
And its spurs pierce me
When a sorrow advances on me
And its spurs pierce me
I feel less than a dog
And my throat tightens
I feel less than a dog
And my throat tightens
Because the most hardened man
Who embraced a hope
If a wind turns it over
He loosens as if nothing
That's why I let them talk
About the wine and my early mornings
Sorrows also destroy
But everyone keeps quiet about it
The wine hits hard
Stabbing straight ahead
If I have to leave my bones
Sorrows won't take them
They say you're killing me
Wine from the early morning
