Translation of the song lyrics Anduriña - Juan Pardo, Joan Manuel Serrat

Anduriña (original)

En Galicia un día yo escuché
Una vieja historia en un café
Era de una niña que del pueblo se escapó
Anduriña joven que voló
Lloran al pensar donde estará
Mas nadie la quiere ir a buscar
Anduriña la llamaron los que allí dejó
Torna pronto a puerto por favor
Un abuelo está junto al hogar
(Un abuelo está junto al hogar)
Habla y me sonrie con maldad
(habla y me sonrie con maldad)
Anduriña es joven, volverá ya lo verás
Es un pajarillo sin plumar
En un día gris se posará
Su misterio ya no lo será
El nombre anduriña ya jamás se lo dirán
Pero mientras tanto dónde está
Donde está…
(Anduriña dónde está)
Donde está…
(Anduriña dónde está)

Anduriña (translation)

In Galicia one day I heard
An old story in a cafe
It belonged to a girl who ran away from the town
Young Anduriña who flew
They cry to think where she will be
But no one wants to go look for her
Anduriña was called by those she left there
Come back soon to port please
A grandfather stands by the hearth
(A grandfather is by the hearth)
He speaks and smiles at me with evil
(speaks and smiles at me wickedly)
Anduriña is young, she'll come back, you'll see
She is an unfeathered bird
On a gray day she will perch
His mystery of her will no longer be
The Anduriña name will never be told
But meanwhile where is
Where is she…
(Anduriña where is she)
Where is…
(Anduriña where is it)
