Translation

María pensó que el amor

María thought that love

Era un mandamiento de dos

Was a commandment for two

Y esperando el primer beso

And waiting for the first kiss

Se hace vieja ante el espejo

She grows old in front of the mirror

Y limpia su llanto

And wipes away her tears

Maquilla sus heridas

She applies makeup to her wounds

Y se le va la vida

And life slips away from her

Recuerda la primera vez

She remembers the first time

Que le juró que fué sin querer

He swore it was unintentional

Y en los hijos que vivieron

And in the children who lived

Prisioneros de su miedo

Prisoners of her fear

María soñaba con ser la princesa

María dreamed of being the princess

De los cabellos de oro

With golden hair

Y la boca de fresa

And a strawberry mouth


María se fué una mañana

One morning, María left

María sin decir nada

María left without saying anything

María ya no tiene miedo

María is no longer afraid

María empiza de nuevo

María starts anew

María yo te necesito

María, I need you

María escapó de sus gritos

María escaped from his shouts

Se bebe las calles, maría

She drinks the streets, María


Ella nunca dice que no

She never says no

Es la esclava de su señor

She is the slave of her master

Ella siempre lo perdona

She always forgives him

A sus pies sobre la lona

At his feet, on the canvas

Su patria es su casa

Her homeland is her home

Su mundo la cocina

Her world is the kitchen

Y se le viene encima

And it all comes crashing down on her


Un día dejó el corazón

One day she left her heart

Abandonado en su colchón

Abandoned on her mattress

Solo piensa en ver su cuerpo

She only thinks about seeing her body

¡Ay! del quinto mandamiento

Oh, the fifth commandment

María no tiene color en la sangre

María has no color in her blood

María se apaga y no lo sabe nadie

María fades away, and no one knows
