Del cabello más sutil

Language: Spanish (Español)

Our translations: ENG FRE ITA

Del cabello más sutil
Que tienes en tu trenzado
He de hacer una cadena
Para traerte a mi lado.
Una alcarraza en tu casa,
Chiquilla, quisiera ser,
Para besarte en la boca,
Cuando fueras a beber.

Col capello più sottile

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the Spanish (Español)

Col capello più sottile
che hai nelle tue trecce
devo fare una catena
per portarti a fianco a me.
Una brocca nella tua casa
vorrei essere, piccina,
per baciarti sulla bocca
ogni volta che bevi.
