¡Viva viernes!       (Long live Friday! In other words, TGIF!)

La fecha es el dieciséis (16) de diciembre del año dos mil veintidós. (The date is December 16, 2022.)

Que no salga la luna (May the Moon Not Rise) is a flamenco song by Rosalía. The song is sung from the perspective of a groom and shows the dark side of marriage.

We get a glimpse of the bright and dark side of some relationships in the second verse: “¡Qué bonita está mi novia que se merece un trono!” (How beautiful is my bride that she deserves a throne!)

“¡Reina!” (Queen!)

“Corona’a de brillantes hechas con perlas y oro” (Crown of diamonds made with pearls and gold).

“Quiera o no quiera, lo quiera ella o no quiera” (Whether she wants to or not),

“Va a estar conmigo y hasta que se muera” (She will be with me until she dies).

¡Bailemos y cantemos! (Let’s dance and sing!) Follow along with the letra (lyrics). 

¡Que tengas un viernes vivaz!       (May you have a vivacious Friday!)

L. A. Feliz
