2. Seguidilla murciana
Language: Spanish (Español)
Cualquiera que el tejado Tenga de vidrio, No debe tirar piedras Al del vecino. Arrieros semos; ¡Puede que en el camino Nos encontremos! Por tu mucha inconstancia Yo te comparo Con peseta que corre De mano en mano; Que al fin se borra, Y creyéndola falsa ¡Nadie la toma!
2. Séguedille de Murcie
Language: French (Français)
Quiconque a un toit De verre Ne doit pas lancer de pierres Sur le voisin. Nous sommes des muletiers ; Il se peut qu'en chemin Nous nous rencontrions ! Pour ta grande inconstance Je te compare À une peseta qui court De main en main ; Qui à la fin s'efface, Et la croyant fausse Personne ne la prend !

6. Canción
Language: Spanish (Español)
Por traidores, tus ojos, voy a enterrarlos; No sabes lo que cuesta, «Del aire» Niña, el mirarlos. «Madre a la orilla Madre.» Dicen que no me quieres, Ya me has querido... Váyase lo ganado, «Del aire» Por lo perdido, «Madre a la orilla Madre.»
6. Chanson
Language: French (Français)
Parce que tes yeux sont des traîtres, Je veux les enterrer ; Tu ne sais pas combien coûte « Ce regard », Petite, de le regarder. « Mère, sur la rive, Mère ! » Ils disent que tu ne m'aimes plus Mais tu m'as aimé... Le gain est parti « Ce regard » Parce que l'ai perdu, « Mère, sur la rive, Mère ! »

Note : il semble que les paroles «Del aire" et « Madre, a la orilla » viennent d'une autre chanson pour prolonger la strophe. D'autres exemples sont montrés dans le livre « La jota como género musical » de Miguel Manzano Alonso.This text was added to the website: 2012-02-02
