Abstract

This paper examines the Spanish song «Princesita que riega la albahaca» and compares it with other Moroccan versions of the folk tale. Although loosely based on the encounter between King Solomon and Queen Sheba, the story incorporates a series of elements from different folk traditions, while insisting on the motif of the husband-seeking maiden. Drawing on the motifs of the garden or the mother, the essay examines how the protagonist of the story uses the metaphor of the Basil plant to articulate relations of exogamy and to question social assumptions regarding the role of women and their social constraints.   El presente artículo examina la canción en español "Princesita que riega la albahaca" y la contrasta con otras versiones marroquíes del cuento. Aun basándose relativamente en el encuentro entre el rey Salomón y la reina de Saba, la historia incorpora una serie de elementos de diferentes tradiciones populares al tiempo que insiste en el motivo de la doncella que busca marido.A partir de los motivos del jardín o de la madre, el ensayo examina cómo el protagonista de la historia utiliza la metáfora de la planta de albahaca para articular relaciones de exogamia y para cuestionar los presupuestos sobre el papel de las mujeres y sus limitaciones en sociedad.
