Lyrics
Negra,
Ella, es la princesa negra, de los campos de Almería;
Es tan negra que «pá» verla, tiene que hacerse de día;
Dicen, que llegó en una patera, y que no tiene papeles;
Que es una persona buena, y que «to» el mundo la quiere.
Sale bailando descalza entre los invernaderos;
Baila la rumba y la salsa;
Y cuando llega a su casa, lo que se baila en su pueblo.
como el carbón de las minas, siempre pensando en la vuelta
Igual que las golondrinas;
Es amiga del relente;
Es la princesa escondida;
Quiere traerse a su gente, quiere llevarse Almería.
Ella;
Se lava la cara ella, con agua del arroyuelo;
Y por cama la princesa, tiene un cartón en el suelo;
Tiene tres ó cuatro pretendientes;
Todos con mucho dinero;
no hay uno que le despeine, un anillo de su pelo.
En vez de reina casada con catorce invernaderos;
Es la princesa encantada;
Porque vive enamorada de un negrito de su pueblo.
como el carbón de las minas, siempre pensando en la vuelta;
Igual que las golondrinas;
Es amiga del relente;
Es la princesa escondida;
Quiere traerse a su gente, quiere llevarse Almería.
como el carbón de las minas, siempre pensando en la vuelta;
Igual que las golondrinas;
Es amiga del relente;
Es la princesa escondida;
Quiere traerse a su gente, quiere llevarse Almería.

Lyrics translation
Black,
She is the black princess of the fields of Almeria;
It's so black that " pop " to see it, it has to be done by day;
They say, that he arrived in a patera, and that he has no papers;
That she's a good person, and that " to " the world loves her.
He goes out dancing barefoot among the greenhouses;
Dance the rumba and salsa;
And when he comes home, he dances in his village.
like coal mines, always thinking about the turn
Just like swallows;
She's friends with relente.;
It's the hidden Princess;
He wants to bring his people, he wants to take Almeria.
She;
She washes her face, with water from the Brook;
And for the Princess's bed, she has a cardboard on the floor;
He has three or four suitors;
All with a lot of money;
there's no one that'll mess you up, a ring from your hair.
Instead of Queen married to fourteen greenhouses;
It's the Enchanted Princess;
Because she lives in love with a little nigger from her town.
like coal mines, always thinking about the turn;
Just like swallows;
She's friends with relente.;
It's the hidden Princess;
He wants to bring his people, he wants to take Almeria.
like coal mines, always thinking about the turn;
Just like swallows;
She's friends with relente.;
It's the hidden Princess;
He wants to bring his people, he wants to take Almeria.
