Ajugar de novia galana,
a buen mazal ya la mandan,
ésta y otra,
ésta y otra será vuestra boda,
ésta y otra.
Arrecavdí yo lo que quería:
ajugar de novia galana,
enbuenhora,
enbuenhora s’odrenó la boda,
ésta y otra.
The dowry of the gallant bride,
Is given to her with good luck
this and another,
this and another will be your wedding,
this and another.
I got what I wanted:
The dowry of the gallant bride,
In good luck,
In good luck the wedding was arranged,
this and another.
From Kanta Gayiko, Judeo-Spanish songs from Bulgaria, 2025
This song is sung when the dowry of the bride is being exhibited.
