L´ASCENSOR / THE ELEVATOR
[XOTA DE TRESMONTE/ A RUMBA/ L´ASCENSOR]
(Trad. asturiana/Trad. asturiana/ Fernando Oyagüez – Arrg. BLIMA)
De primeres, una xota recoyida a Concepción Rodríguez, nel pueblu de Tresmonte (Cangues de Narcea).
Seguimos con una rumba recoyía nel conceyu Degaña por Xosé Ambás, a la que-y facemos una parte más.
Pa finar, un saltón que salió ente trayeutu y trayeutu del rápidu y guapu ascensor que sufrimos cada vez que vamos de camín pal ensayu. Bien podía ser una sinfonía completa, pero al final salionos un saltón de dos partes.
We start with a “xota” which was picked up from Concepción Rodríguez, in Tresmonte (Cangas de Narcea). We go on with a rumba which was picked up in Degaña county by Xosé Ambás. We added a new part to it. To finish up, we have a “saltón”, which was composed on our upwards and downwards journeys in the fast and beautiful elevator which we use on our way to rehearsal. It could have easily been a complete symphony, but it came out as a two-part “Saltón”.
lyrics
La jota quieren que cante
yo la jota nun la sei
por dar gustu a quien bail.la
la jota cantaréi
Ehí la tienes, bail.lala
bail.lala con cuidaditu
nun-l.ly rompas el mandil
que lu tiene nuevecitu
Sospirando m´arrimé,
al pie d´una verde oliva
las fuel.las me contestaron
nun llores por quien t´olvida
Tiroume mio buela, tiroume
tiroume de las ureas
porque me diba a los mozos
como ´l l.lobu a las uveas.
Ya nun puedo cantar más
que se m´acaba la gracia,
ya un poco que me queda,
quiérola you pa mañana.
Tiroume mio buela, tiroume
tiroume de las ureas
porque me diba a los mozos
como ´l l.lobu a las uveas.

Si nun quieres caminar, moreno del alma
nun me quites de cantar, montera con ala
Si nun quieres caminar, moreno del alma
nun me quites de cantar, pañuelín de seda
Se supieras caminar
corazón te enviaría
para que puedas cambiar, moreno,
tristeza por alegría.
Si nun quieres olvidar, moreno del alma
nun me faigas mermurar, montera con ala
si nun quieres olvidar, moreno del alma
nun me faigas mermurar, pañuelín de seda
Corazón con qué razón
olvidas a quien nun debes
a quien debes olvidar, moreno
más en memoria lo tienes.
