Anduriña [English translation]

In Galicia one day I heard

About an old story in a café,

It was about a girl who ran away from her village

Young Anduriña1 who has flown away

They weep at thinking "where is she?"

but no-one wants to go to look for her,

Anduriña they called to her, those she had left there

Please come back to the port quickly!

An old man is near the home

He talks and smiles with malice

Anduriña is young, she will return, you'll see,

She's a little bird without plumage

On a grey day she will settle down,

Her mystery will no longer be

They will never again call her Anduriña

But, in the meantime, where is she?

Where is she? Anduriña, where is she?
