Échame niña bonita
lágrimas en un pañuelo
y las llevaré a Granada
que las engarce un platero.
Con ellas quiero adornarme
la tapa de un guardapelo.
Que el Jueves santo ¡mi niña!
lo lucirá el Nazareno.
¡Lágrimas en un pañuelo!

Ballata
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the Spanish (Español) 
Dammi, bella bambina,
lacrime in un fazzoletto
e le porterò a Granada
perché le incastoni un gioielliere.
Con esse voglio adornare
il coperchio di un medaglione.
Il Giovedì Santo, bambina mia,
lo sfoggerà la statua del Nazareno.
Lacrime in un fazzoletto!
