- Ricardo del Amo: [serenading Anna Maria Verdugo with Diego] When the strolling minstrels sing, they sing of la gaviota! The snow-white gull that glides o'er the summer sea. And my own true love is like la gaviota. Like a gull in flight she dances gracefully. Fly gaviota, fly. Dance, señorita, dance. Gypsy spirits, both so wild and free. Yes, my own true love, is like la gaviota. Like a gull in flight she dances gracefully. Fly gaviota, fly. Dance, señorita, dance. Gypsy spirits, both so wild and free. Yes, my own true love, is like la gaviota. Like a gull in flight she dances gracefully.
