Pasodoble, Te Quiero

Lucía: With a guitar
and a pair of sticks
was born the Flamenco and Cañí Pasodoble
and the story goes
that the Sun and the Moon and all of Albaicín
attended its baptism
Joaquín: Its cradle was Spain, its father a Christian
its mother a queen of Calé race
and a witch who lives in the plain says
that its godfather was the same Undivé
and that's why the Pasodoble is Flamenco and Spanish
and that's why I carry it within my heart
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
Lucía: Because you have in your grace the best
of the whole world;
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
Joaquín: Because you carry in your notes the courage
of the bullfighters;
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
because being in a foreign land
you bring me the memory
you bring me the memory
of that mother I have in Spain.
Lucía: On a morning
of my Andalusia
my good Pasodoble wanted to marry
with the Sevillana
with the Bulería
with the Petenera and the Soleá
Joaquín: The four songs dressed in white
came singing and dancing with Him
and when they reached the moon
the King of Coplas gave them his love;
Lucía: And in the clouds' heights, he built a palace
where he lives happier than the very pharaoh
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
Lucía: Because you have in your grace the best
of the whole world;
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
Joaquín: Because you carry in your notes the courage
of the bullfighters;
Lucía Joaquín: Pasodoble, I love you
because being in a foreign land
you bring me the memory
you bring me the memory
of that mother I have in Spain.
