Maria La O
Caetano Veloso
Maria The B
Unhappy mixed-race woman, your life is over
The laughter and party have broken the bongo
That you heard yesterday trembling with love
And with hope next to a cruel man
Her love has already left my heart
Who now despises her because my passion
That wounded his betrayal is just
Thirst to see him finally lying at my feet
Maria the B no more singing
Maria the B now is the time to cry
Of your kisses, that so fleeting already flew
Maria the B everything is over
Your love has already left your heart
And he will never return
Maria the B dreams of dying
