Lady Jehanne,
"Tres Morillas" is a song I know which seems to fit your theme, though it
is neither Andalusian nor on-line as far as I've been able to find. It's
a late 15th century Villancico in Castillian Spanish about the singer
falling in love with three little Moorish girls. The piece is anonymous;
I found it published in _Cancionero Musical de los Siglos XV y XVI_
collected by Francisco Asenjo Barbieri, Madrid, 1890. I know there are
other editions out there, as well as some recordings. The original
manuscript it was in is called "Cancionero de Palacio." I can mail you a
copy if you can't find one.
