Lyrics Enric Granados Las Currutacas Modestas (Englisch)

The Modest Damsels

Tell me which damsels you can see around there
who look as nice as this:
when they see us both there is no one who will
not say may God bless you.
For you have to see the invisible power
that a woman enjoys who was born
close to the neighbourhood of la Moncloa or La Florida
So tell me if you have ever seen on earth
such a tiny foot. Olé!
And as our grandmother has been long dead,
there is no need for more modesty. Ha! Ha!
