El novio no quere (El novio desprendido + Los buenos augurios)
Judeo-Spanish Songs for the Life Cycle in the Eastern Mediterranean
El novio no quere
In this serial song the groom expresses what he does and does not wish: not money but rather a bride with blond hair; not wooden slippers but rather a bride who will arrive right away; not apples but rather a handsome bride. Every strophe ends with blessings for enjoyment and success.
