about
Evoéh presenta "Ora, meu meniño, ora" , un canto tradicional gallego que inspiró a Rosalía de Castro para escribir todo el poema completo, que se recoge en "Cantares gallegos". Para componer la música, nos hemos basado en las melodías populares de Galicia que recogieron Ramón de Arana y Anselmo Gonález del Valle, hace ahora ya más de cien años.
El tema principal pertenece tradicionalmente a la nana "Ora, meu meniño". Las melodías del interludio y del estribillo son también otros alalás populares.
lyrics
Ora, meu meniño, ora,
¿quen vos ha de dar a teta,
si túa nai vai no muíño,
e teu pai na leña seca?
Ora, meu meniño, ora,
¡canto chorarás por ela!
Sin ter con que te acalente,
sin ter con que te adormeza.
¡Ai, cando veña túa nai!
¡Ai, cando che a túa nai veña!
¡Cal te topará, meniño,
frío como a neve mesma!
Eu cha dera, miña xoia,
con mil amores cha dera,
hastra rebotar, meu santo,
hastra que máis non quixeras,
hastra verte dormidiño
con esa boca tan feita,
sorrindo todo fartiño,
cal ubre de vaca cheia.
Mais ¡ai, que noite che agarda!
Mais ¡ai, que noite che espera!
Que anque dúas fontes teño,
estas fontiñas non deitan.
Eu cha dera, miña xoia,
con mil amores cha dera,
hastra rebotar, meu santo,
hastra que máis non quixeras,
Ora, meu meniño, ora,
¿quen vos ha de dar a teta,
si túa nai vai no muíño,
e teu pai na leña seca?
