Seguidilla murciana
Language: Spanish (Español)
Available translation(s): ENG ENG FRE
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!

Séguedille de Murcie
Language: French (Français)  after the Spanish (Español)
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 !
