Hi Güiro, Letras based on the same traditional meter are interchangeable. For example, tientos and tangos, soleá, bulerías and cantiñas (alegrías, etc.) are three or four lines of eight-syllable verse, and anything that fits and sounds cool is fair game. You may have noticed that fandangos, malagueñas and cantes de Levante (taranta, etc.) almost always use five-line verse, siguiriyas has the long middle line, guajiras are completely different, etc.

Two days ago Conrad sent me an album titled 'Flamenco por Andalucia, Espana y la Humanidad'. The letras on all recorded palos are the andalusian hymn: La bandera blanca y verde vuelve tras siglos de guerra a decir Paz y Esperanza bajo el sol de nuestra tierra Andaluces levantaos! Pedid tierra y libertad! Sea por Andalucia libre España y la Humanidad Los andaluces queremos volver a ser lo que fuimos hombres de luz que a los hombres alma de hombres les dimos Palos: bulerias 2x, mineras, solea, alegrias, seguiriya&tona, fandangos de lucena, verdiales&jaberas, tangos, taranta&cartegenera, fandangos de huelva. Very cool.
