Diosa de La Noche
Los de Marras
Goddess of the Night
She arrives in the wee hours
And there's nothing in the fridge
To have for breakfast
And her children go
To school to endure
The taunts of others
She can't take care of them
Who can tell them
That she couldn't choose
That she's always had
To fight to survive
And the night will fall
Like a wall once again
And she'll hit the streets
To make some cash
Goddess of the night
Adventurous among the bodies
Those who seek in you
What they don't get at home
Goddess of the night
Eternal mother, my respects
The horse and this life
Are wearing you down
Today she caresses again
Like a deadly cold
A needle on your skin
And how sad it is to die
Alone in an alley
You have to resist
You have plenty of heart
Since sixteen
Enduring the pull
To give up now
Would be giving them the reason
To the one who raped you
To the one who calls you immoral
To the judge who condemned you
And pays to screw
Goddess of the night
You're fed up with this jungle
Among monkeys and camels
They've wounded a panther
Goddess of the night
Great worker, great laborer
For your trade is the oldest
Of all on earth
