Spanish text
Si te vas a bañar, Juanilla,
dime a quales baños vas.
Si te entiendes d'yr callando,
los gemidos que yré dando,
de mí compasión abrás;
Dime a quales baños vas.
English translation
If you go have a bath, little Joanna,
Tell me to what bath house you'll go.
If you be pleased to silence
each groan that I'll make,
then you'll show compassion for me.
Tell me to what bath house you'll go.
