Almond beating song
The queen has in the courtyard (bis)
a winter fig.
The earliest fruit (bis)
is the almond flower.
King, my lord, I know another one:
the queen has in the courtyarda winter fig.
Oil pressing song
The life of the miller is
sleeping on the table,
because he turns the night into day
and always carries sleep debt.
Always carries sleep debt
the life of the miller.
Pruning song
When the tree does not want the leaf (bis)
it herself falls down.
You court someone else (bis)
and you treat me without any respect.
When the tree does not want the leafit herself falls down.
The workers are given notice for lunch with the shell’s sound
Threshing song
When the wind came upon us
– away! away! –
I had already half of it threshed.
Oh, half of it threshed! Oh, Virgin of Lluc
give us strength and health!
– away! away! soon we finish! –
Strength and health to us and to our animals.
When the wind came upon us
came upon us
When the wind came upon us
we had already half of it threshed.
– Hou! –
When the wind came upon us
– away! away! –
I had already half of it threshed.
Oh, half of it threshed! Oh, Virgin of Lluc
give us strength and health!
– away! away! soon we finish! –
Strength and health to us and to our animals.
When the wind came upon us
came upon us
When the wind came upon us
we had already half of it threshed.
– Hou! –
Song of drawing water with pail
Long ago in that door (house)
I had placed my future. (bis)
Now I pass so far from it,
as the water along the gutter.
Long ago in that door.
Long ago in that door (house)
I had placed my future. (bis)
Now I pass so far from it,
as the water along the gutter.
Long ago in that door.
