Translation

No sé si el corazón peca, Llorona;

I don't know if the heart sins, Llorona;

en aras de un tierno amor.

in the name of a tender love.

De una linda oaxaqueña, Llorona

Of a beautiful woman from Oaxaca, Llorona

más hermosa que una flor.

more beautiful than a flower.

¿Porqué si te quiero quieres, Llorona

Why, if I love you, Llorona,

que yo la muerte reciba?

do you want me to embrace death?

Que se haga tu voluntad, ay Llorona;

May your will be done, oh Llorona;

por suerte de Dios no viva.

fortunately, by God's mercy, I won't live.

Ay de ti, Llorona.

Oh, woe is you, Llorona.

Llorona, tú eres mi xuca.

Llorona, you are my sweetheart.

Me quitarán de quererte, ay Llorona;

They may stop me from loving you, oh Llorona;

pero de olvidarte nunca.

but to forget you, never.
