Translation of the song lyrics Las Reinas del Matute - Las Migas

Las Reinas del Matute (original)

Era España más España
Y la hambre más hambruna
Era el mundo cuatro calles
Era España más España
Y la hambre más hambruna
Era el mundo cuatro calles
En un hueso de aceituna
Del Peñón los suvenires para el gozo y el disfrute
De manos de arrieros y de reinas del matute
Acercarse a las alforjas (acercarse a las alforjas)
Que hoy traigo cositas buenas
Que hay penitas que sin pan (que hay penitas)
Saben mucho más a pena.
(a pena)
Des del Peñón de Gibraltar traigo mi yegua
Cargá de cuarterones de azúcar blanca
Huyendo del camino busco la vereda
Aaaaaahí donde las viejas mean, por donde nadie para
Tiriti traun traun traun treiro
Tiriti traun traun traun traun
Si largo es el camino que va pa' Gibraltar
Tiriti traun traun trero ai tiriti traun traun traun traun
Y si me dieran el alto, y si el alto a mi me dieran
Que nadie le coja las riendas que ya conoce bien la vereda
Que nadie le coja las riendas que ya conoce bien la vereda
Acérquenseee
Acérquense y dejen pañuelos de seda
A precio de trapo que hoy es luna llena
Y no tengo faena y los dejo baratos
Tiriti traun traun que hoy es luna llena, llena
Tiriti traun traun traun treiro
Tiriti traun traun traun traun
Si largo es el camino que va pa' Gibraltar
Tiriti traun traun trero tiriti traun traun trero
Más larga se hace la vuelta
Con las espuertas, espuertas cargás
Tiriki traun traun traun traun traun
Tiriki traun traun traun traun treiro
Tiriki traun traun traun traun traun
Tiriki traun traun traun traun treiro

(translation)

It was Spain plus Spain
And the famine more famine
It was the world four streets
It was Spain plus Spain
And the famine more famine
It was the world four streets
In an olive pit
Del Peñón souvenirs for joy and enjoyment
From the hands of muleteers and queens of the matute
Approach the saddlebags (Approach the saddlebags)
That today I bring good things
That there are pains that without bread (that there are pains)
They know much more than sorrow.
(barely)
From the Rock of Gibraltar I bring my mare
Load of quarters of white sugar
Running away from the road I look for the sidewalk
Aaaaaa there where the old women piss, where nobody stops
Tiriti traun traun traun treiro
Tiriti traun traun traun traun
If long is the road that goes to Gibraltar
Tiriti traun traun trero ai tiriti traun traun traun traun
And if they gave me the high, and if the high they gave me
Don't let anyone take the reins because you already know the path well
Don't let anyone take the reins because you already know the path well
come closer
Come closer and leave silk scarves
At the price of rags that today is a full moon
And I don't have work and I leave them cheap
Tiriti traun traun that today is full moon, full
Tiriti traun traun traun treiro
Tiriti traun traun traun traun
If long is the road that goes to Gibraltar
Tiriti traun traun trero Tiriti traun traun trero
The longer the lap becomes
With the baskets, loads of baskets
Tiriki traun traun traun traun traun
Tiriki traun traun traun treiro
Tiriki traun traun traun traun traun
Tiriki traun traun traun treiro
