Oy, ninias, ninias

From Arboleras vol. 3, Sephardic songs from the 20th century, 2000

The lyrics of this Sephardic song appeared on page 5 of the collection of songs that had previously been published in the newspaper La Trompeta and later in a notebook titled The Songs of the Trumpet (1924). There the title and commentary appear: "Ah, the girls are dancing the foxtrot! What a shame!" The beginning of the lyrics are  similar to our version,  but motivated by the same ironic outlook.
This song was learned from the version performed by Bela Shaboté, born in Skopje (Macedonia) and who lived at the Residence of Elderly Sephardim of Salonika (Esterka Sadiéira-Moestra).
