about
This is the tragic story of a Jewish maiden who converts to Islam because she cannot properly cooks stuffed vine leaves. Her mother hits her and people want to punish her for not being able to cook this typical Sephardic dish.
lyrics
Una muchacha en Selanika,
Ke la kijeron kastigar.
Por unos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no los supo bien gizar.
Su madre de ser ravioza,
Chaketón le fue a dar,
Por estos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no los supo bien gizar.
Ya se alevantó Zimbulucha,
Ya se va onde'l Dayán,
Ke le dé la lisensia,
Ke turka se v'aboltar.
Djudía, mas ke djudía,
Turka se fue a aboltar,
Por estos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no lo supo bien gizar.
Ke la kijeron kastigar.
Por unos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no los supo bien gizar.
Su madre de ser ravioza,
Chaketón le fue a dar,
Por estos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no los supo bien gizar.
Ya se alevantó Zimbulucha,
Ya se va onde'l Dayán,
Ke le dé la lisensia,
Ke turka se v'aboltar.
Djudía, mas ke djudía,
Turka se fue a aboltar,
Por estos negros yaprakitos,
Ke no lo supo bien gizar.
