Morena La Causa Fuiste

Morena la causa fuiste

You were the cause, Morena

De mi triste desventura

Of my sad misfortune

Adiós mi bella criatura

Goodbye, my beautiful creature

Mañana me voy de aquí

Tomorrow, I'm leaving from here

Mañana se va tu prieto

Tomorrow, your dark-skinned one is leaving

Tu prietito ya se va

Your little dark one is leaving

Dale un abrazo siquiera

Give him at least a hug

Sabe Dios si volverá

Only God knows if he'll come back

Mañana que no te mire

Tomorrow, when I don't see you

Yo no sé que voy a hacer

I don't know what I'm going to do

Nomás suspire y suspire

I just sigh and sigh

Llorando por tu querer

Crying for your love

Malhaya mi suerte ingrata

Cursed be my ungrateful fate

Malhaya tanto penar

Cursed be so much suffering

Aunque esta pasión me mata

Although this passion kills me

Yo nunca te he de olvidar

I will never forget you

Mañana se va tu prieto

Tomorrow, your dark-skinned one is leaving

Tu prietote ya se va

Your big dark one is leaving

Ven dale su despedida

Come, give him his farewell

Sabe Dios si volverá

Only God knows if he'll come back
