Baile de Candieiro

White shirt, colored scarf
And a new boot and pinstripe pants
Lots of brilliantine in the hair
Here we have foot stomping in the corner ballroom

And I'm arriving somewhat wary
By the twilight of that candle
And in the commotion I look for that brunette
For whom I let myself be enchanted like this

And we're already dancing in the middle of the dance floor
And another turn and a turn and a half
Play another xote, another vaneira
So I can show my worth

And I lean on your neck
And your perfume making me dizzy
Another spin that I won't give up
On who is my love

Ah, my candle
If you extinguish your light now
I'll take this dark-skinned flower
Saddle my horse and go out into the world
