La Llorona
Lila Downs
The Weeping Woman
Everyone calls me the black weeping woman
Black, but affectionate
Everyone calls me the black weeping woman
Black, but affectionate
I am like the green chili weeping woman
Spicy, but tasty
I am like the green chili weeping woman
Spicy, but tasty
Oh! my weeping woman
Weeping woman of yesterday and today
Oh! my weeping woman
Weeping woman of yesterday and today
Yesterday, I was a marvel weeping woman
And now I am not even a shadow
Yesterday, I was a marvel weeping woman
And now I am not even a shadow
You left the temple one day weeping woman
When I saw you passing by
You left the temple one day weeping woman
When I saw you passing by
You wore a beautiful huipil weeping woman
That the virgin believed was yours
You wore a beautiful huipil weeping woman
That the virgin believed was yours
You left the temple one day weeping woman
When I saw you passing by
You left the temple one day weeping woman
When I saw you passing by
And even if it costs me my life weeping woman
I will not stop loving you
And even if it costs me my life weeping woman
I will not stop loving you
