Dame un besu, morenina,
pero apréndelo a volar,
a pasar entre les rejes
y a posase equí al mio llau.
Cuando taba ahí,
siempre a par ti,
no le daba yo importancia.
Encerrau equí,
nada más que pienso en ti,
cada vez tengo más gana.
Dame un besu, morenina,
nun me faigas esperar,
pero mándalo a esta celda,
non lu mandes pal Ferral.
Como lo tastié
ya alguna vez,
testoy esperando yo por el besu,
el que guardes ya,
el que me vas dar
en saliendo yo de presu.
Dame un besu, morenina,
dámelu que tenga sal,
comu los que me prestaben
a la vera de la mar.
Cuandu taba ahí,
siempre a par de ti,
noy daba yo importancia.
Encerrado aquí,
nada más pienso en ti,
cada vez tengo más gana.
Nun me va marcar el paso,
dame xeitu pa aguantar;
van fundirse los barrotes
cuandu me vengas buscar.
Como lo tastié
ya alguna vez,
testoy esperando yo por el beso,
el que guardes ya,
el que me vas dar
en salienso yo de presu
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Give me a kiss, dear brunette,
but show it how to fly,
how to get through the railings
and to lie down by my side.
When I was over there,
always by your side,
I didn't give it any thought.
Locked up in here,
you are all I think about,
I'm longing for it ever more.
Give me a kiss, dear brunette,
don't make me wait,
but send it to this cell,
don't send it to El Ferral*.
As I tasted it
already some time,
I'm longing for the kiss,
the one you're already keeping,
the one you'll be giving me
as soon as I get out of jail.
Give me a kiss, dear brunette,
give it to me spicy,
like the ones I used to like
right upon the seashore.
When I was over there,
always by your side,
I didn't give it any thought.
Locked up in here,
you are all I think about,
I'm longing for it ever more.
I'm not into marching in step,
give me something so I can hold on;
the bars will just melt down
when you come and fetch me.
As I tasted it
already some time,
I'm longing for the kiss,
the one you're already keeping,
the one you'll be giving me
as soon as I get out of jail
