La Llorona

Lila Downs Lila Downs

The Weeping Woman

Yes, because I love you, you love me, Llorona
May I receive death
Yes, because I love you, you love me, Llorona
May I receive death
Thy will be done
Oh, Llorona
Luckily for God he doesn't live
Thy will be done
Oh, Llorona
Luckily for God he doesn't live

Woe is me, Llorona
Llorona of yesterday and today
Woe is me, Llorona
Crybaby, Crybaby
From yesterday and today
Yesterday I was a marvel, Llorona
And now I am not even a shadow
Yesterday I was a wonder, Llorona
And now I am not even a shadow

You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by
You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by
You wore a beautiful huipil, Llorona
That the virgin believed you
You wore a beautiful huipil, Llorona
That the virgin believed you

Woe is me, Crybaby, Crybaby, Crybaby
Of light blue
Woe is me, Llorona, Llorona
Of light blue
And even if my life costs me
Llorona, I will not stop loving you

Everyone calls me the black guy, Llorona
Black, but affectionate
Everyone calls me the black guy, Llorona
Black, but affectionate
I am like the green Chile, Llorona
Spicy, but tasty
I am like the green Chile, Llorona
Spicy, but tasty

Oh! Me, Llorona
Llorona of yesterday and today
Oh! Me, Llorona
Llorona of yesterday and today
Yesterday, I was a marvel, Llorona
And now I am not even a shadow
Yesterday, I was a marvel, Llorona
And now I am not even a shadow

You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by
You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by
You wore a beautiful huipill, Llorona
That the virgin believed you
Beautiful huipill you wore, Llorona
That the virgin believed you
You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by
You were leaving the temple one day, Llorona
When I saw you passing by

Thy will be done
Oh, Llorona
And even if it costs me my life, Llorona
I will not stop loving you
And even if it costs me my life, Llorona
I will not stop loving you
