La Oscura Flor
Alberto Danza
The Dark Flower
Your night skin burns
It lights up with the drum
And I burn in the wine
That wets my love-thirsty mouth
Your bare breasts tremble
Under that prickly robe
That my eyes tear apart
Knives of desire, heavy with alcohol
When the dawn mist
Turns off the echoes of the infernal drum
In the dimness of the room
A bull in my blood will be unleashed
Outside, there will be dew
Us very close, tired of loving
Why is it that the road
Always comes looking for me
Dark flower of my zamba
Your mouth and your body will not forget me
So let me drink
Your tanned skin, woman
Your body is a dark wine
And in deep sips I will drink it
