Limón Limonero(original) |
A los pies de un limonero florecido |
una noche que en la vida olvidaré |
un mocito pintorero y presumido |
a una niña le entregó too' su querer |
Se creyó su juramento y no vió su falsedad |
y se ahoga en el tormento |
de sentirse abandonada |
Y a la sombra de aquel limonero |
que un día, dichosa, la vió sonreir, |
desojando una a una sus penas |
igual que una rosa le cantaba así: |
Limonero, ay, limón limonero |
a tu vera le dijo un mocito falso y embustero |
como a nadie en el mundo he querido, |
serrana, te quiero. |
Ten piedad de mí, |
calma mi dolor, |
ay, limón, limonero, |
limonero mío de mi corazón. |
Por caminos sembraditos de zarzales |
con la cruz de su dolor se echó a rodar |
y ahogadita por la hiel de los pesares |
no consigue ni olvidar ni perdonar, |
pero al cabo de los años se cumplió la maldición, |
que otra hembra lo traiciona |
lo mismo que él traicionó. |
Y a la sombra de aquel limonero |
que fue florecido |
y el tiempo secó |
hoy lo han visto llorando sus penas |
por un desengaño, castigo de Dios. |
Limonero, ay, limón limonero |
a tu vera le dijo un mocito |
falso y embustero: |
como a nadie en el mundo he querido, |
serrana, te quiero. |
Ten piedad de mí, |
calma mi dolor, |
ay, limón, limonero, |
limonero mío de mi corazón. |
(translation) |
At the foot of a flowering lemon tree |
a night that in the life I will forget |
a young painter and conceited |
to a girl he gave all his love |
She believed his oath to her and did not see its falsehood |
and she drowns in torment |
of feeling abandoned |
And in the shadow of that lemon tree |
that one day, she was happy, she saw her smile, |
letting go of their sorrows one by one |
just like a rose sang to him like this: |
Lemon tree, oh, lemon lemon tree |
a false and deceitful young man said to your side |
I have loved no one in the world, |
Serrano, I love you. |
Have mercy on me, |
calm my pain, |
oh, lemon, lemon tree, |
my lemon tree of my heart. |
Through paths strewn with brambles |
with the cross of her pain she began to roll |
and drowned by the gall of sorrows |
she can neither forget nor forgive, |
but at the end of the years the curse was fulfilled, |
that another female betrays him |
the same thing he betrayed. |
And in the shadow of that lemon tree |
that he was flowered |
and the time dried up |
today they have seen him crying his sorrows |
for a disappointment, God's punishment. |
Lemon tree, oh, lemon lemon tree |
a young man told you |
false and liar: |
I have loved no one in the world, |
Serrano, I love you. |
Have mercy on me, |
calm my pain, |
oh, lemon, lemon tree, |
my lemon tree of my heart. |
