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!

En la dorada Alpujarra desciende la oscuridad. Mi guitarra te invita, ¿querida, asómate! Quienquiera que diga que hay otras quien puede compararse a ti, quienquiera que arda por tu amor, ¿a todos a duelo retaré! Ahora la luna en el cielo se ha posado, sal, Nineta, sal, Nineta, a tu balcón, ¿rápido! Desde Sevilla a Granada en el silencio de las noches, puedo oír el sonido de las serenatas, Y el choque de las espadas. Mucha sangre, muchas canciones, brotan constantemente por las damas amadas; ¿y yo, por la más amada de todas estoy dispuesto a dar mi canción y mi sangre! Ahora la luna en el cielo se ha posado, sal, Nineta, sal, Nineta, a tu balcón, ¿rápido!
