Luzía | Viernes con una Letra

Today a song that Paco de Lucía composed for his mother from the album of the same name which he dedicated to her, Luzía.

Luzía
Paco de Lucía   

Las cuerdas de mi guitarra 
están llorando             
lloran por siguiriya          
ay por mi mare               
por mi Lucía

Pa' que quiere llorar
si ya no tengo        
a nadie quien me oiga       
y mi mare 

The strings of my guitar
are crying        
crying siguiriyas      
oh for my mother          
for my Lucía

Why would I want to cry
if I no longer have  
anyone to hear me   
oh my mother
