Lyrics

El ro Guadalquivir
Se enamor de tu estampa
Parti tu alma en dos
Como si fuera una daga
Sevilla de sangre real
Sevilla de sangre gitana
Es una mujer morena
Con aires de enamorada
Sevilla se muere de amor
No quiere morir callada
Quiere morir con el sol
Iluminando su cara
Sus santos en procesin
Por el puente de triana
Quieren llorar con ella
Por soleares gitanas
Desde un balcn de jazmn
O una ventana de rejas
Sevilla les cuenta su vida
Mientras les canta saetas
Sevilla se muere de amor
Y no quiere morir callada
Quiere morir con el sol
Iluminando su cara
La virgen de la esperanza
Quiere vestirse de luto
Y en sus torres las campanas
Lloran su canto mudo
Poetas y cantaores
Con sombreros de ala ancha
Saben que sufre de amores
Por eso a Sevilla cantan
Sevilla se muere de amor
No quiere morir callada
Quiere morir con el sol
Iluminando su cara

Lyrics translation

El Ro Guadalquivir
Fall in love with your image
I broke your soul in half
Like a dagger.
Seville of Royal Blood
Sevilla of Gypsy Blood
It's a brunette woman.
With an air of love
Seville is dying of love
She doesn't want to die silent.
He wants to die in the sun
Lighting up your face
His Saints in procesin
By the Triana bridge
They want to cry with her
For Gypsy soleares
From a jazmn balcony
Or a grating window
Sevilla tells you his life
While he sings arrows to them
Seville is dying of love
And she doesn't want to die silent
He wants to die in the sun
Lighting up your face
The Virgin of hope
He wants to dress in mourning
And in their towers the bells
They cry their mute song
Poets and singers
With wide-brimmed hats
They know he suffers from Love
That's why they sing to Seville
Seville is dying of love
She doesn't want to die silent.
He wants to die in the sun
Lighting up your face
