Translation of the song lyrics Levante - Miguel Poveda, Julián El Califa

Levante (original)

Ay, y eres hermosa, eres guapa
Dios te guarde y en tu puerta
La luna acaba de desengañarme
Mira que va a dar la una
Y me precisa al retirarme
Un soberano lloraba una cartagenera
Para una cartagenera
A los pies de un soberano
Por Dios, por la Magdalena
Que no se lleven a mi hermano
Al Peñón de la Gomera

Levante (translation)

Oh, and you're beautiful, you're pretty
God keep you and at your door
The moon just undeceived me
Look, she's going to give one
And she needs me when I retire
A sovereign cried a Cartagena
For a Cartagena
At the feet of a sovereign
By God, by the Magdalena
Don't take my brother
To the Rock of La Gomera
