Sube arriba pastor lindo

From Arboleras - De las altas mares, Ecos Sefardies de la isle de Rodas, 2009

Lyrics:
-  Sube arriba, pastor lindo,    comerás de los mis bienes
Comerás y beberás    y harás  todo lo que tú queres.
-  Yo no hablo con mujeres,  - se dejó dicir –
yo con me galana me quero ir, 
yo con mi estimada me quero ir.
- Si tú veyis mis cabellos,  atan rubios y atan belos
Cuando los meto a peinar     el sol despuntaba en ellos.
- Va , enfórcate con ellos,   -  se dejó dicir, -  
yo con mi galana me quero ir,
 yo con mi estimada me quero ir
- Si tu veyis las mis manos,   con mis dedos alheñados,
cuando paseo en la villa    todos se quedan mirando.
-  En el fuego serán quemados,  - se dejó decir,
yo con mi galana me quero ir,
yo con mi estimada me quero ir.
Tengo mi mujer preñada,   hijicos de mantener,
el bien tengo aregado,   me va a ir a recoger.
yo con mi galana me quero ir,
yo con mi estimada me quero ir.
 - A la mujer topes con otro,   y a los hijos en mal hacer,
el bien topares quemado,   y empeces a emprovecer.
-  Maldición de puta vieja no m’alcanza a mí,
yo con mi galana me quero ir,
yo con mi estimada me quero ir. -
Ansí parte el pastor lindo,   ansí parte y se va,
A la mujer topó parida,  ya los hijos en buen mizrav,
El bien topó recogido,  y él empezó a emplumar.
-  Maldición de puta vieja no m’alcanzó a mí,
yo con ti, querida, quise venir,
yo con ti, estimada, quise venir.

Translation:
- Go up, handsome shepherd, you will eat of my goods
You will eat and you will drink and do all that you want.
- I do not speak with women, - he let himself say –
I want to go with my beloved,
 I want to go with my esteemed one.
- If you would see my hair, so blond and so beautiful
When I set them to be combed the sun was shining on them.
- Go, hang yourself with them, - he let himself say, -
I want to go with my beloved,
 I want to go with my esteemed one
- If you would see my hands, with my hennaed fingers,
when I walk through the town everyone stops to look.
- In the fire they will be burned, - he let himself say,
I want to go with my beloved,
 I want to go with my esteemed one.
I have my wife pregnant, little children to support,
the good I have harvested, I am going to gather it.
I want to go with my beloved,
I want to go with my esteemed one.
- You will find your wife with another, and the children doing badly,
you will find your goods burned, and you will begin to grow poor.
- Curse of an old whore does not reach me,
I want to go with my beloved,
I want to go with my esteemed one. -
Thus leaves the handsome shepherd, thus he leaves and goes,
He found his wife given birth, and the children in good order,
He found the goods gathered, and he began to prosper.
- Curse of an old whore did not reach me,
with you, dear one, I wished to come,
with you, esteemed one, I wished to come.
