A-Listen to this video and translate the lyrics.
Hogueras de las laderas rodeando,
Las figuras de la danza alrededor y alrededor
Con los tambores que a pulso hacen eco en la oscuridad.
Del movimiento con el pagano
En algún lugar de la oculta memoria,
las imágenes flotan ante mis ojos
Con las fragantes noches de paja y hogueras,
Bailando hasta el siguiente amanecer.
Puedo ver las luces distancia,
El temblor en ele manto oscuro de la noche,
Las velas y los faroles están bailando, bailando
Un vals durante toda la noche de las almas
Las figuras de los tallos de maíz aparecen en las sombras
Elevando alto como las llamas saltando alto,
El caballero verde posee el acebo
Para marcar el año viejo que pasa (X2)
Hogueras de las laderas rodeando,
Las figuras de la danza alrededor y alrededor,
Con los tambores que a pulso hacen eco en la oscuridad.
Del movimiento con el sonido pagano.
Permanentemente sobre el puente que cruza,
El río que fluye hacia el mar,
El viento está lleno de miles de voces,
Que pasan entre el puente y yo.
Puedo ver las luces a distancia,
El temblor en el manto oscuro de la noche,
Las velas y los faroles están bailando, bailando
Un vals durante toda la noche de las almas.
Las figuras de los tallos de maíz aparecen en las sombras,
Elevando alto como las llamas saltando alto,
El caballero verde posee el acebo,
Para marcar el año vieio que pasa.(X2)
