Mariá

Where are you going with that damn bundle, Mariá
In the well, there's only water to drink
Little water, leaves the clothes poorly washed, Mariá
Washing clothes, also has something to learn

Put little cloth in that bundle, Mariá
In this weather, there's no water to waste
Take the quilt, I need that quilt
Open the bundle, put the quilt
Take the quilt to wash - repeat

I've told you, it won't work in the well
Go to the salty stream, I dug a hole there

The water from the stream is very clean
You wash the whole bundle if the soap doesn't run out
