Lyrics: Marina “la Canillas” / Translation: Rob James
SULTANAS DE MERKAILLO
A taste of crystal water is what I want
Fountains of the Moorish Alhambra for my insides
Bonfires of affection without possessions
Ay! we are the homeless of a thousand loves
Dunes and fine sand of golden copper
Raise the speckled and violet dawn
Sultanas of the street and the bustle
Fire and hot metals of a thousand songs
Full hearts, empty pockets,
Treasures of rumba and flame,
Sultanas of the Merkaíllo
My home is where I find myself, where little shacks line the street,
“Sound system” in the market stalls, improvising with chalices of wine.
And this is what life is, life is like this…
Each one lives as they can and as they’re allowed to live
PASS, PASS, PASS SADNESS, PASS
PASS FOR A MOMENT AND WARMTH COMES IN
FIRE AND BURN, PASS!
Seeking the immeasurable cadence
Waiting in company for the sun to arrive
Travelers of the night and of passion
Fire and hot metal of a thousand songs
PASS, PASS,
True wealth has no price: it can’t be bought nor sold.
RUMBA AND WARMTH COMES IN
“Techarí” that, free, neither leads nor follows, “jala, jala.”
PASS, PASS
PASS, PASS, PASS SADNESS, PASS
PASS FOR A MOMENT AND WARMTH COMES IN
FIRE AND BURN, PASS!
PASS, PASS, PASS SADNESS, PASS
PASS FOR A MOMENT AND WARMTH COMES IN
FIRE AND BURN, PASS!
