Canción de los Amires

Today is our anniversary
I've invited you to my bed.
With my stockings, I've tied you up
and a dagger, I've stabbed you.
I've squeezed hard
and I've gouged out your eyes.

Now I have you in my hands
you ask me why, my love?

The lonely cemetery
I've descended to your grave.
I've desecrated the coffin
and my eyes have cried for you.
For I've touched your body
and I've kissed your lips.

Now I have you by my side
don't ask why, my love.
