Teño tres pitas brancas
Language: Galician
Teño tres pitas brancas e un galo negro, que han de poñer bôs hovos, andand' o tempo. Y hei de vendel-os caros pol-o Xaneiro, y hei de xuntal-os cartos para un mantelo, y heino de levar posto no casamento, y hei, por mira, Marica, vai por un neto, e antramentas non quitas ese cerellos, y as pitas van medrando c' o galo negro, para poñel-os hovos, e todo aquelo d' o Xaneiro, d' os cantos, y o casamento, miña prenda da alma, ¿vamos bebendo!
