Mary

Sale sola de noche María

Mary goes out alone at night

Pena por la ciudad

She grieves across the city

Recorriendo las calles que un día

Travelling through the streets where one day

Negó besos en la oscuridad

She denied kisses to someone, in the darkness

Y se nubla la vista, María

And your gaze goes hazy, Mary

Porque duele recordar

Because it hurts to remember

Que los besos negados, María

That those denied kisses, Mary

Nunca más regresaran

Will never ever come back

En las noches por ese camino

At night, while walking through that path

Algo extraño puede pasar

Something strange may happen

Al sentir en los labios el frio

When you feel in your lips the coldness

De otros labios que no veras

Of another lips you won't be able to see

Es María quien pena en las calles

It's Mary who grieves through the streets

Y debajo de un farol

And under a streetlight

Roba besos y vida a la gente

She steals kisses and life from people

Mientras ella yace en un cajón

All while she lies inside a coffin [1]

María bonita

Pretty Mary

María marchita

Withered Mary
