El Juglar

Let the flute play
Let the dance roll
And bring back the days
Of Maricastaña
I am Juan Derramasoles
Minstrel of Spain

I bring a trained bear
And a jester's hat
Where the coins can jingle
That Your Grace can spare
I'm poor, I've lost it all
Except for hunger and thirst

I sing of what happens
And what can't ever be
Feats of the present
Legends of the past
I’m a river’s apprentice
Moving from then to now

To my old springtime
I’m returning, I’m on my way
I’ve sung forever
Hope sent me on my way
Whoever seeks me through time
Will find me in the nightingale

Let the flute play
Let the dance roll
And bring back the days
Of Maricastaña
I am Juan Derramasoles
Minstrel of Spain
