Viernes con una Letra | Cantiñas

Cantiñas con abanico.  That is what we're doing in one of the workshops with Emilio this weekend.

And I am inspired beyond belief.

We're dancing to Miguel Poveda's Casa Pavón.  Here is the first letra...

Donde están los colegiales 
Plazoletilla del Rey
donde están los colegiales
al punto de la oración
unos entran y otros salen.
Popular

The King's Square
where the schoolchildren are
at the time of prayer
some come in, and others leave.

This is what is sounds like.  (It from the album Zaguán)

Yes, I say it every week.  Translating is a challenge.  Let me know if you have any thoughts.  P.S. Emilio is here!!!  You still have time to experience him!
