Compostelana

The student tuna passes through Santiago
Singing very softly love ballads
Then the night in its echoes
Filters them in rounds through every balcony

But there in the temple of the Holy Apostle
A girl cries before her Patron
Because the cape of the tuno she adores
Doesn't have the ribbon she embroidered for him
Because the cape of the tuno she adores
Doesn't have the ribbon she embroidered for him
When the tuna serenades you
Don't fall in love, girl from Santiago
Because each ribbon adorning my cape
Carries a piece of heart

Tralala, ralaralara
Don't fall in love, girl from Santiago
And let the tuna pass by
With its trala, ralara

Today the tuna is in full dress
Singing and playing the wedding march
Bells of glory ring
Leaving the university deserted

And there in the temple of the Holy Apostle
The student is getting married today

The sweet and jealous Galician girl
Who, upon hearing this song, will no longer cry
The sweet and jealous Galician girl
Who, upon hearing this song, will no longer cry
