Mi abuela bailó sirilla

Rolando Alárcon Rolando Alárcon

My grandmother danced sirilla

(Sirilla)

My grandmother danced sirilla,
my grandfather, the double fandango,
my aunt, the pericona,
and my godfather, the drumroll.

And when they danced,
Wow, they fell in love!

My grandmother who flirted,
my grandfather pursued her,
my aunt crossed herself,
my godfather laughed.

When they fell in love,
Wow, they got married!

My grandmother danced sirilla,
my grandfather courted her,
my aunt, who was no fool,
danced with my godfather.

When they got married,
Wow, they got tangled up!
