Lyrics

Español

Pintó tus ojos el azabache de una pena. Gitana buena, yo vi tus lágrimas de amor. Caminos blancos, fueron pañuelo de tu llanto y acongojaron tu corazón. Gitana rusa, no lo hallarás por las tabernas, ni en las estepas, ni en las calles del dolor. Gitana triste, serás más triste cuando sepas que tu gitano se arrojó una noche al Don... Las balalaicas buscaron música en tus trenzas, y los cosacos cantaron a tu soledad. Tus ojos negros estaban lejos de la vida ya no querían volver a amar.

English · machine translation

Painted your eyes the jet of a sorrow. Good gypsy, I saw your tears of love. White roads were the handkerchief of your tears and grieved your heart. Russian gypsy, you won't find it in the taverns, nor in the steppes, nor in the streets of sorrow. Sad gypsy, you'll be sadder when you know that your gypsy threw himself one night into the Don... The balalaicas looked for music in your braids and the Cossacks sang of your loneliness. Your black eyes were far from life no longer wanted to love again.
