Lyrics

Aún recuerdo el piano
De aquella niña
Que había en Sevilla
La novia del embarcado
Nunca la siesta dormía
Sola en los corredores de mecedora
De consola y lorito, sueña el querer
Que a Cuba se fue
Y aquella mujer
Está tocando el piano;
Escriben sus blancas manos
Cartas de amores
Que han de volver
Ay, goleta antillana
Ay, cuánto lo quería
Que era trigo su pelo cuando embarcaba
Que era nieve el pañuelo que adiós decía…
Ay, suspira la fuente
Ay, dormita el pregón…
La copla de un pianillo
Se va metiendo por los balcones
Navegan los galeones
Que hay en los cuadros del corredor…
Estribillo
Se bambolea
La goleta en el río
Se bambolea
Que viene de Sanlúcar
Con la marea
Viva Sevilla
Y los barcos que salen
Pá las Antillas
Viva Triana
Y los barcos que vienen
Desde La Habana
II
Se calla el pianillo
Tras los visillos
Suena el piano
Qué dulce lo toca ahora
La novia del embarcado
Las mecedoras bailan sus habaneras
Con su son de caoba, manigua y ron
Y se abre el balcón
Suspira el pregón.,
Ay, barrio del Baratillo
Tiene color de Murillo
La siesta triste
De aquel salón…
Ay, novio marinero
Ay, capitán de mi puerto
Qué blancas son las velas de tu goleta
Qué secretas las penas de mi pañuelo
Ay, que se fue pá Cuba
Ay, que venga por Dios…
Que venga por el río
Con su goleta, desde Sanlúcar
Que esta copla de azúcar
Pone más dulce mi corazón
Al estribillo y final

Lyrics translation

I still remember the piano.
Of that little girl
That there was in Seville
The ship's bride
The nap never slept
Alone in the rocking runners
Console and Parrot, dreams of wanting
That Cuba went
And that woman
He's playing the piano.;
They write their white hands
Love letters
That they must return
Ay, West Indian schooner
Oh, I loved him so much.
That it was wheat her hair when she embarked
That was snow the handkerchief that said goodbye…
Ay, sigh the source
Oh, sleep the cry…
The duo of a pianillo
It goes through the balconies
The Galleons sail
What's in the paintings of the corridor…
Chorus
He was wobbling
The schooner on the river
He was wobbling
Coming from Sanlúcar
With the tide
Viva Sevilla
And the ships that go out
Pá the Antilles
Viva Triana
And the ships that come
From Havana
II
The piano is silent
Behind the visillos
Play the piano
How sweet it is now
The ship's bride
The rocking chairs dance their habaneras
With its mahogany, manigua and rum sound
And the balcony opens
Sigh the cry.,
Ay, baratillo neighborhood
It has Murillo color
The sad nap
From that room…
Ay, sailor boyfriend
Oh, captain of my port
How white are the sails of your schooner
What secret are the sorrows of my handkerchief
Oh, he's gone to Cuba.
Oh, Come On, God.…
Let him come by the river
With his schooner, from Sanlúcar
That this cup of sugar
It makes my heart sweeter
Chorus and ending
