TRANSLATION of the song GASTIBELZA

Gastibelza, the man with the rifle,
Sang like this: “Did anyone know Dona Sabine? Anyone from here?
Sing, dance, villagers! The night is falling.
Mount Falu...The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy."
Did any of you know Sabine, my senora?
Her mother was the old maugrabine, from Antequera,
Who screamed every night in the Magne Tower, like an owl.
The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy.
Really, the Queen would have looked ugly next to her.
When, towards evening, she passed over the Toledo Bridge,
In a black corselet.
A rosary from the time of Charlemagne adorning her neck.
The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy.
Seeing her so beautiful, the King said to his nephew :
"For a kiss, for a smile from her, for a hair, Infant don Ruy,
I would give away Spain and Peru!
The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy."
I don't know if I loved this lady, but I know well,
That, to have a look into her soul,
Me, poor dog, I would happily have spent ten years in prison, behind bars!
The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy."
When I saw this young girl,
I, the shepherd from this canton,
thought I saw beautiful Cleopatra,
Who, we are told, led Caesar, Emperor of Germany, by the halter.
The wind that comes through the mountain will drive me crazy."
Dance, sing, villagers, night is falling.
Sabine, one day, gave everything away, her dove-like beauty,
All her love, for the golden ring of the Count of Sardagne, for a jewel!
The wind that comes through the mountain has driven me crazy!
