Carmencita
Amália Rodrigues
Carmencita
Her name was Carmencita
The most beautiful gypsy
Like a dream, a vision
They said she was the
Most beautiful of the caravan
But she had no heart
The caresses and affection
Lost along the way
Without ever having known them
And she went seeking adventure
As if searching
For a lost grain of sand
One night, under the moonlight
They heard the galloping
Of two horses fleeing
Carmencita, the lovely grace
Denying her own race
Went after a beautiful dream
Only this hurtful song
Gets mixed in the dust of the road
When the caravan passes
Carmencita, Carmencita
If you weren't so beautiful
You would always be a gypsy
