La Sitiera Lyrics in English Omara Portuondo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Sitiera by Omara Portuondo from Spanish to English.
Sitiera mía
My country girl
Dime qué has hecho
Tell me what you've done
De nuestro dulce hogar
With our sweet home
Cuna que un día
A cradle that once
Fue la alegría
Was the joy
De todo aquel sitial
Of everyone in that place
Lágrimas vierte la sitiería
The farmland sheds tears
Que tiende a desolar
That drifts toward desolation
Y es por no verte
And it's for not seeing you
Reina, que un día
Queen, who one day
Fuiste de aquel lugar
You ruled that place
Ya el jilguero se alejó
Now the goldfinch has flown off
De aquel frondoso algarrobo
From that leafy carob tree
Y hasta la mata de jobo
And even the hog plum bush
Nos da muestra de dolor
Shows us its pain
La sitiera se ha marcado
The country girl is branded
Y yo enamorado lloro por su amor
And I, in love, cry for her love
Y es para la sitiería
And it's for the countryside
Cual si fuera un día
As if it were a day
Que le falta el sol
Missing the sun
Ven sitiera por favor
Come, country girl, please
Ven de nuevo a mi retiro
Come back to my refuge
Y gozaremos de amor
And we'll revel in love
Al son del timple y el güiro
To the beat of the timple and the güiro
Ven sitiera por favor
Come, country girl, please
Ven de nuevo a mi retiro
Come back to my refuge
Y gozaremos de amor
And we'll revel in love
Al son del timple y del güiro
To the beat of the timple and the güiro
Ven sitiera por favor
Come, country girl, please
Ven de nuevo a mi retiro
Come back to my refuge
Y gozaremos de amor
And we'll revel in love
Al son del timple y del güiro
To the beat of the timple and the güiro
