Гаснут дальней Альпухары
Language: Russian (Русский)
Гаснут дальней Альпухары
Золотистые края,
На призывный звон гитары
Выйди, милая моя!
Всех, кто скажет, что другая
Здесь равняется с тобой,
Всех, любовию сгорая,
Всех, всех, всех зову на смертный бой!
От лунного света
Зардел небосклон,
О, выйди, Нисета, о выйди, Нисета,
Скорей на балкон!
От Севильи до Гренады,
В тихом сумраке ночей,
Раздаются серенады,
Раздаётся стух мечей.
Много крови, много песней
Для прелестных льются дам,
Я же той, кто всех прелестней,
Всё, всё, песнь и кровь мою отдам!
От лунного света
Зардел небосклон,
О, выйди, Нисета, о выйди, Нисета,
Скорей на балкон!
