Alvantes una manianica
Tres horas antes del dia
Novia di amor, ke tan galana sos
De que estas tan demudada
demudada de mi amado
Los cabellos tan revueltos
revueltos del mi amado
Rises in the morning
three hours after the day
Bride of love, so beautiful is she
Why are you so pale?
I am pale from the night
Your hair is so unruly
It is unruly from my lover
From Kanta Gayiko, Judeo-Spanish songs from Bulgaria, 2025
Two songs that address the state of the bride after her wedding night.
