Delgadina Romance


Delgadina walked

In the room to the kitchen,
With her dress Silk
That lit her body.

- Arise, Delgadina,
Put on your silk petticoats!,
Why we go to Mass
The city of Morelia.

Then he left Mass,
His dad would tell:
"Delgadina, my little one,
I love for women."

- God forbid the sky Neither
reigns supreme!,
that is offensive to God
And my betrayal breast.

-Get together eleven servants,
Lock up Delgadina; well
Rivet locks,
That voice is not heard Ladino.

-daddy of my life,
Your punishment I'm suffering,
Regalame a glass of water
What I'm dying of thirst.

-Get together eleven servants, Bring him
water Delgadina,
In gilded glass,
China Glass Vase.

When I took L' water,
Delgadina was dead,
had his arms crossed,
had his mouth open.

Delgadina's bed
is surrounded by angels;
The king bed his father,
of demons tight.

Now with this I say goodbye,
I have an appointment in the corner,
Here are just singing the verses
Delgadina.

(Mexican version of the traditional English romance, s. XX )

__________
Note: This romance, as indicated, far from other versions older, as old, which the soldiers of Cortes sang some of them, these versions of Iberian origin can apparently be traced back to late medieval and discuss it if they are, in turn, of Jewish or Arab. In any case, there are variants of the same in Morocco, carried either by the Sephardic Jews (or Jews English, if you prefer), following his expulsion by the Catholic Monarchs, or by the Moors. Also in Turkey there Ladino language (ie, in the language of the Judeo-English) ... The version presented here, transcribed, accompanied by audio and video, listening to polka rhythm *.
* The polka (of Polish origin) , arrived in Mexico with the German immigration, not much different in essence from the English rhythms in vogue, hence its rapid acceptance. Remains valid today, especially in the northern territories.
