Al compás de una muñeira [English translation]

Today, the memories of his homeland

Have come back to him all of a sudden;

The cheerful demeanour of his countrymen

And those beautiful landscapes every Springtime.

Today, he has felt a strong longing

For his homeland's mountains and small towns;

He has remembered his childhood

When he would breathe the air of its many rivers.

Weeping

He will make a toast to honour those friends

He lost without even realizing...

Laughing,

He shall sing once more with them

Following a muñeira's rhythm. *

Galiza! **

More and more beautiful every single day!

Better and better with every passing day!

More and more beautiful every single day!

Better and better with every passing day!

Today, all of a sudden, he has remembered

The happiness and sadness

That he felt while he was leaving

That fateful night, full of starlight.

If life should give me

Any wish that I want,

I would ask for him to not die

Before he can go back home once more.

Weeping

He will make a toast to honour those friends

He lost without even realizing...

Laughing,

He shall sing once more with them

Following a muñeira's rhythm.

Galiza!

More and more beautiful every single day!

Better and better with every passing day!

More and more beautiful every single day!

Better and better with every passing day!
