La Sitiera - Omara Portuondo

Sitiera mía

Dime qué has hecho

De nuestro dulce hogar

Reina que un dia

Fue la alegria

De todo aquel sitial

Lágrimas vierte la sitiería

Que tiende a desolar

Y es por no verte

Reina, que un día

Fuiste de aquel lugar

Ya el jilguero se alejó

De aquel frondoso algarrobo

Y hasta la mata de jobo

Nos da muestra de dolor

La sitiera se ha marchado

Y yo enamorado lloro por su amor

Y es para la sitiería

Cual si fuera un día

Que le falta el sol

Ven sitiera por favor

Ven conmigo a mi retiro

Y gozaremos de amor

Al son del timple y el güiro

Ven sitiera por favor

Ven conmigo a mi retiro

Y gozaremos de amor

Al son del timple y el güiro

Ven sitiera por favor

Ven conmigo a mi retiro

Y gozaremos de amor

Al son del timple y el güiro

Ven sitiera por favor

Ven conmigo a mi retiro

Y gozaremos de amor

Al son del timple y el güiro

Sitera mine

Tell me what you have done

of our sweet home

Queen that one day

It was the joy

Of all that seat

Tears pour the sitiería

that tends to desolate

And it's for not seeing you

Queen, that one day

you were from that place

The goldfinch has already moved away

Of that leafy carob tree

And even the bush of jobo

He shows us pain

The Sitiera has left

And I, in love, cry for his love

And it is for the sitiería

as if it were a day

that the sun is missing

come sitera please

come with me to my retreat

And we will enjoy love

To the sound of the timple and the guiro

come sitera please

come with me to my retreat

And we will enjoy love

To the sound of the timple and the guiro

come sitera please

come with me to my retreat

And we will enjoy love

To the sound of the timple and the guiro

come sitera please

come with me to my retreat

And we will enjoy love

To the sound of the timple and the guiro
