The inspiration for this song comes from the tragic 'El pozo amargo' (The Bitter Well) legend of Toledo, Spain. It recounts the heartbreaking love story of a Jewish girl and a brave Christian boy who is killed by the girl's father during one of their secret nocturnal encounters. According to the legend, Raquel cried so much that her tears made the well's water bitter. Distraught with grief, she ended her life by throwing herself down the well. 
Originally situated within a Jewish mansion, the well still survives today in a small square on 'El pozo amargo' Street near the Cathedral of Toledo. It was at this spot where the enamored couple, Raquel and Fernando, would secretly rendezvous and where their tragic love story became an enduring legend.

Tema inspirado en la trágica leyenda toledana de 'El pozo amargo'. Narra los desamores entre una judía toledana y un valiente cristiano, que es asesinado por el padre de ella en una de sus encuentros nocturnos. La leyenda cuenta que las lágrimas de Raquel amargaron las aguas de este pozo, donde ella acabó tirándose presa de la locura. 
Muy cerca de la catedral de Toledo se encuentra la calle de 'EL pozo amargo', donde todavía se conserva este pozo. Es el lugar donde se ubicaba el palacio judío escenario de la leyenda, donde se daban cita los enamorados Raquel y Fernando.

LYRICS/LETRAS

'Las sombras de tu vergel secreto escondieron los besos de labio y labio abiertos en flor 
Doncella de nobleza levita, si adoras a un cristiano más vale que silencies tu amor
La noche soñada en los jardines despista a los guardianes que velan tus paseos, Raquel
Tan solo la luna en su crecida conoce de tus dichas y el pozo en que le aguardas a el

Rosarios de auroras toledanas bendicen vuestra suerte y os vuelven descuidados tal vez
Luceros y estrellas pasajeras perfilan en el aire su entrega y tu desnudez
Y al alba de una noche certera partido de un abrazo por una daga criminal
La sangre templada de Fernando destila entre tus manos y anuncia su destino fatal

'En su agua calmaré
Este amargo dolor
Fernando, sálvame,
¿ya estás aquí, mi amor?'

Calvario de pena y desconsuelo te arranca de tu lecho en delirio y vas al pozo a llorar
Locura de hiel en tus sollozos derraman en su cauce el mal sabor de tu pesar
Asomas a la  fosa profunda, sus ojos te sonríen, serenos del perdón de Dios
Y cuentan cristianos de Toledo que aullando con el viento quebrada se escucha tu voz'

Hinach Yafa

In my bed its already week I search
The one my soul love
And I couldn’t find him
I search in all the streets of the
Full lies city
And I couldn’t find him
The guards who surround the city
Found me
But my love..i couldn’t find him yet
I will not let him go
Till I will bring him to my city
To mother house to my room To my bed
u have been so beautiful my wife
and your lips r scarlet string
your tooth r white as the light of the moon
Who is coming up from the desert
From a faraway land Carried by a big bird
Arriving to my house
La la la la la..
In my bed its already week I search
The one my soul love
And I couldn’t find him
I search in all the streets of the
Full lies city
And I couldn’t find him
The guards who surround the city
Found me
But my love..i couldn’t find him yet
I will not let him go
Till I will bring him to my city
To mother house to my room To my bed
u have been so beautiful my wife
and your lips r scarlet string
your tooth r white as the light of the moon
Who is coming up from the desert
From a faraway land Carried by a big bird
Arriving to my house
U have been so beautiful my wife
I’m getting mixed inside your eye which
Burning me as a tongue of fire
Who is coming up from the desert
From a faraway land Carried by a big bird
Arriving to my house
