Translation of the song lyrics Una Moneda Le Di - George Dalaras

Una Moneda Le Di (original)

En una noche sin luna,
en medio-o la oscuridad.
a la puerta de mi casa,
vi a un gitanico llorar.
porquι lloras esta noche,
capu-u-ullito de alheli.
lloro por mi pobre madre, lloro por mi pobre madre
que hace-e tiempo la perdi.
Una moneda, le di ay-a!
E-le di, pa 'que no llorara.
Una moneda le di ay-a!
le di pa 'que no llorara.
E-yo que!
— ni con esa, ni con esa a-monedita ni con esa a-monedita alegrι
yo su corazun, Que!
yo tampoco tengo, yo no tengo quien me quiera ni quien me llame compauera,
una rosa soy de pasiun, Que!
porque perdu mi corazun
En otra noche serena,
por estrellas alumbrada.
el niuo es un pajarico,
en la rama de un cantar.
porquι cantas esta no-o-oche
capu-u-llito de alheli
porquι encontrado ortra madre, porquι encontrado ortra madre,
la madre que estaba en ti
Una moneda, le di ay-a!
E-le di, pa 'que no llorara.
Una moneda le di ay-a!
le di pa 'que no llorara.

Una Moneda Le Di (translation)

On a moonless night
in half-or darkness.
at the door of my house,
I saw a gypsy cry.
why are you crying tonight
capu-u-ullito de alheli.
I cry for my poor mother, I cry for my poor mother
that I lost her a long time ago.
A coin, I said woe!
I-I gave her, so she wouldn't cry.
A coin told him ay-a!
I told him not to cry.
I-I what!
— Neither with that, nor with that a-coin nor with that a-coin alegrι
I her heart of her, What!
I don't have either, I don't have anyone who loves me or who calls me comrade,
a rose I'm from passion, what!
because i lost my heart
On another serene night,
by stars illuminated.
the boy is a birdie,
in the branch of a song.
why do you sing this no-o-oche
capu-u-llito de alheli
why found another mother, why found another mother,
the mother that was in you
A coin, I said woe!
I-I gave him, so he wouldn't cry.
A coin told him ay-a!
I told him not to cry.
