Vengan a Mi Casamiento (original)

Señores les contaré
Que yo el domingo me caso
Tráiganme cien esquinazos
Y madamas como flores
Yo tengo muchos licores
Para la mesa de adentro
La de afuera al mismo tiempo
Y sacaré por tinajas
Y les digo con confianza
Vengan a mi casamiento
Tengo cincuenta carneros
También doscientos capones
Serviciales son mis peones
Y otros tantos de leñeros
De papas son dos graneros
Y eso dirán que no es cierto
Doscientos pavos hay muertos
Para hacer un estofado
Amigos hay invitados
Vengan a mi casamiento
Yo tengo que festejar
Primero por mis parientes
Porque tengo que servirles
Diez barriles de aguardiente
De mistela tengo veinte
Las cocineras no cuento
Servicio tengo por ciento
Para poner en la mesa
Y les digo con franqueza
Vengan a mi casamiento
Yo con tiempo me prevengo
Pa' atender a mis amigos
Porque tengo que servirles
Cuarenta pipas de vino
Hay tabacos de los finos
Del bueno, pa' que les cuento
También hay alojamiento
Para el que quiera alojar
De comer no ha de faltar
Vengan a mi casamiento
Para toda la compaña
Varillitas de sarmiento
Si no quieren pasar hambre
Vengan a mi casamiento
Yo no he invitado a naiden
Porque no hay nada que darles
Asiento donde sentarse
No ha querido prestar naiden
Y todo en el casamiento
Se ha vuelto puro pelambre

(translation)

Gentlemen I will tell you
That I get married on Sunday
Bring me a hundred corners
And ladies like flowers
I have many liquors
For the table inside
The outsider at the same time
And I will take out by jars
And I tell you with confidence
come to my wedding
I have fifty rams
Also two hundred capons
Helpful are my pawns
And many others from lumberjacks
Of potatoes are two barns
And they will say that it is not true
Two hundred turkeys are dead
To make a stew
friends there are guests
come to my wedding
I have to celebrate
First for my relatives
Because I have to serve you
Ten barrels of brandy
By mistela I am twenty
The cooks do not count
service I have percent
To put on the table
And I tell you frankly
come to my wedding
I prevent myself with time
To serve my friends
Because I have to serve you
Forty pipes of wine
There are fine tobaccos
Of the good, so that I tell them
There is also accommodation
For those who want to host
Eating must not be missing
come to my wedding
for the whole company
Vine shoots
If you don't want to go hungry
come to my wedding
I have not invited naiden
Because there is nothing to give them
Seat to sit
He has not wanted to lend anyone
And everything in the wedding
It has become pure fur
