La Llorona
Joan Baez
The Weeping Woman
Everyone calls me the black one, weeping woman
Black but affectionate
I am like green chili, weeping woman
Spicy but tasty
Oh! From me, weeping woman
Weeping woman of yesterday and today
Yesterday I was a marvel, weeping woman
And now I am not even a shadow
They say I have no mourning, weeping woman
Because they don't see me cry
There are dead who make no noise, weeping woman
And their suffering is greater
Oh! From me, weeping woman
Weeping woman in light blue
And even though life is hard for me, weeping woman
I will not stop loving you
