Текст песни Montserrat Figueras - El Rey De Francia

Sephardic (from Smyrna) Traditional. Instrumental Arrangement by Davka, Sung in Ladino (Kitka and Davka)

El Rey de Francia
Tres hijas tenia
La una labrava
La otra cuzia

La mas chica de eyas
Bastidor hazia
Labrando, labrando
Sueño le caia

Su madre que la via
Aharrvar la queria
No me aharrvesh mi madre
Ni me ahavariash

Un sueño be soñaba
Bien y algria
Sueño vos soñabash
Yo vo la soltaria

La luna entera
Es la tu suegra
La estreya Diana
Es la tu coñaba

Los tres pasharicos
Son tus coñadicos
Y el pilar de oro
El hijo del rey tu novio

Sephardic from Esmirna, sung in Ladino, from Savinna Yannatou, instr. arr. Davka
“The king of France has three daughters. One washed, the second sewed. The youngest embroidered a tapestry, and working stitch by stitch, she fell into a dream. “I dreamed a dream so fine.” “A dream you dreamed? I will tell you what it means.” “I looked out the door and saw the full moon. I looked out the window and saw the star of Diana. I looked into the well and saw a golden pillar with three little birds pecking at the gold.” “The full moon is your mother-in-law. Diana’s star is your sister-in-law. The three birds are your little brothers-in-law. The pillar of gold is your husband-to-be, the king’s son.”
