Viernes con una Letra | No me llame usted bonita

Bulerías.

No me llame usted bonita
que mi marido es celoso
y de noche me mortifica

Don't call me pretty
for my husband is jealous 
and at night will beat me

You can hear Carmen Amaya singing this one.  It's the last letra that she sings here.  (Go to 3:49.)

And here is Esperanza Fernandez singing the same letra.

Interested in dancing some bulerías? The workshop begins in August.

And, of course, there will be all kinds of bulerías to experience in Spain in October. I can't wait to be back there hearing bulerías around every corner soaking it all in as much as possible...

Tú sabes.  Translating is a challenge for me.  If you have a comment or suggestion, please leave it here.
