The Marquis's Daughter

The daughter of a Marquis was interested
in love with a sailor
She discovered his secret
love had entered her heart.

They were content with each other
they wouldn't marry the following year.
Between learning at school
they were completely apart in their town.

Both were so available
to understand each other's letters.
To put on formalities
but they weren't sleeping in love's eyes.

The mother couldn't stand that word,
she immediately started to detain the letters,
with a greater intention they were losing the marriage;
Juanita didn't think like that.

The malice of love!: it has gone to the runner
Antonio made a letter that he died;
Juanita knowing that new sadness
deceived by saying a lie.

The mother says: my dear Juanita
is lost, they say Antonio Maria.
I will find you a better one
a noble, owner of many interests.

Time fully started
what happened in her memory
without taking the letter that was sent long ago
an innocent entered the town where he was born.

This is what the first one said.
-What is it that I honor with the musician?
The Marquis's daughter in the street
he needed what he wanted.

He fainted for an hour
then the bride said two words
a machine surrounded people
he suddenly died for the second hour.

The night passed and the next morning
he had his second class funeral.
Behind the Marquis's daughter;
What a pity would be in her heart?

With a broken heart Antonio died
Juanita accompanied him to the church.
If he loved he said as I did
he never had any health.

The remedy was that feeling
put an end to Jesus' love
praying to the Virgin Mary
for Antonio Maria to happen in heaven.

In each other's company we also want
Virgin, tell the Lord the truth
if you could for all Christians
Iturrino has it so desired.

What the sky and earth did to him
come to my memory to clarify;
if there is hope given by someone
I will fulfill what I desire.

With love pains at this moment
if I could publish in new verses;
I have found out well in those orders
San Jose in three and a half afternoons.

It was a clear sign to remember
to say to go to his house.
-I want to manifest this word
with you, Antonio, I want to be.

-What do you say to me? Juanita, that word,
if you seem to be trying if it seems strange.
You don't touch my dignity
don't make fun of the sailor.

-You can believe it well
that I liked you long ago.
I won't leave you abandoned
that's why I make you swear today.

-They will be useless in our anger
I won't move to eternity.
I would like to marry in good affection
when Antonio Maria comes.

-Mother don't tell me that
I don't love anyone else.
I can't be happy in my heart
because of being a good conscience.

-Leave aside such works
I don't see you as a lady like you.
If you want to take honor and fame
they will take you and your mothers.
