The Lily

In "Cai tie" La Bizcocha
A sailor's café,
And in the café there's a girl
The color of a dark lily. (repeat)
They call her Lily by name
And that name suits her well,
For a love, oh love,
"Tie" the dark circles under her eyes.
And from "Cai" to Almería,
With a hoarse voice from the liquor,
The sailors sing:
Lily, Lily has,
Lily has a sorrow,
And her temples have turned
"Moraítas" from torment.
They say it's for a man,
They say it's for two;
But the truth of the tale
Oh, Lord of the torments!,
Only Lily and God know.
To the sea, wood,
And to the virgin, candles,
"For" little dukes, mother
The ones that Lily has
"For" little black dukes
The ones that Lily has.
A man came from Cuba,
And to La Bizcocha he paid
Fifty gold coins
For that purple lily. (repeat)
That was a drink
Of mint and sesame,
That was a moonlit night,
That was an April afternoon.
And from "Cai" to Almería
Sings Lily's lover
With a pained voice.
