Lyrics
Sitiera mia
Dime que has hecho
De nuestro dulce hogar
Reina que un dia
Fue la alegria
De todo aquel sitial
Lagrimas vierte
La sitieria
Que tiende a desolar
Y es por no verte
Reina que un dia
Fuiste de aquel lugar
Ya el jilguero se alejo
De aquel frondoso algarrobo
Y hasta la mata de jobo
Nos da muestras de dolor
La sitiera se ha marchado
Y yo enamorado
Lloro por su amor
Y es para la sitieria
Cual si fuela un dia
Que le falta el sol
Ven sitiera por favor
Ven conmigo a mi retiro
Y gozaremos de amor
Al son del y el guiro
Lyrics translation
Sitiera mia
Tell me what you've done
From our sweet home
Queen that one day
It was joy
Of all that sitial
Tears shed
The site
That tends to desolate
And it's for not seeing you
Queen that one day
You came from that place.
And The Goldfinch is gone
Of that leafy carob
And even the kill of job
It gives us signs of pain
The site is gone
And I fell in love
I cry for your love
And it's for the siege
What if it was one day
He's missing the sun
Come sitera please
Come with me to my retirement
And we'll enjoy love
To the sound of and the guiro
