Texts and Translations

TRES MORILLASm’enamoran en Jaén,Axa y Fátima y Marién.

Tres morillas tan garridasyvan a coger olivas,y hallávanlas cogidas en Jaén,Axa y Fátima y Marién.

Y hallávanlas cogidasy tornavan desmaídasy las colores perdidas en Jaén,Axa y Fátima y Marién.

Y las colores perdidas,Tres moricas tan loçanasyvan a coger mançanas en Jaén,Axa y Fátima y Marién.

YO ME SOY LA MORENICA,yo me soy la morena.

Lo moreno bien mirado,que nunca fue halladoni jamás se hallará,fue la culpa del pecado.Yo me soy…

Soy la sin espina rosaque Salomón canta y glosa.Nigra sum sed formosaY por mi se cantará.Yo me soy…

Yo soy la mata in�amada,ardiendo sin ser quemadani de aquel fuego tocadaque a las otras tocará.Yo me soy…

Three little Moorish girlshave stolen my heart in Jaén:Axa and Fatima and Marien.

Three little Moorish girls, so lovely,Went to pick olivesAnd found them picked already inJaén,Axa and Fatima and Marien.

And found them picked already,And then they came back faintAnd pale of cheek in Jaén,Axa and Fatima and Marien.

[And pale of cheek]Three little Moorish girls, soattractive,Went to pick apples at Jaén,Axa and Fatima and Marien.

I am the little dark girl,I'm the dark girl.

It is said that darkness,is caused by sin,but sin was never found in menor it will ever be.I am the little dark girl, I’m the darkgirl.

I am the thornless rose,about whom Salomon rhapsodized:I am black, yet beautifuland for me they will sing.I am the little dark girl, I'm the darkgirl.

I am the �aming bush,that burns but is not consumed,nor am I touched by that �rethat will touch the others.I am the little dark girl, I'm the darkgirl.
