Río Manzanares
Isabel Parra
Manzanares River
Manzanares River, let me pass,
for my sick mother sent for me.
Manzanares, Manzanares,
with your current upstream,
for a beautiful woman
I want to lose my life.
Manzanares, Manzanares,
with your current to one side,
for a beautiful woman
I want to die drowned.
My mother is the only star
that lights my future
and if she happens to die
I'll go to heaven with her.
