Pinto tus ojos
el azabache de una pena,
Gitana buena,
yo vi tus lagrimas de amor...

Caminos blancos
fueron pa
ñuelo de tu llanto
y acongojaron tu corazon.

Gitana rusa,
no lo hallaras por las tabernas,
ni en las estepas,
ni en las calles del dolor...

Gitana triste,
seras mas triste cuando sepas
que tu gitano
se arrojo una noche al Don...

Gitana rusa,
no lo hallaras por las tabernas,
ni en las estepas,
ni en las calles del dolor...
The jet-black of
sorrow painted your eyes,
Good gipsy,
I saw your tears of love...

White roads
were a handkerchief drying your tears
and afflicted your heart.

Russian gipsy,
you won't find him in the taverns,
neither in the steppes,
or in the painful alleys...

Sad gipsy,
you will be sadder when you know
that your gipsy man
one night jumped into the river Don...

Russian gipsy,
you won't find him in the taverns,
neither in the steppes,
or in the painful alleys
