La Puerta Negra
Pancho Barraza
The Black Door
The black door is already closed, with three padlocks,
And the black door is riveted.
Because your parents are jealous
And afraid that I love you.
They must think that being locked up,
You will soon stop loving me,
But the door, not even a hundred padlocks,
Will be able to stop me.
But the door is not to blame,
That you are crying inside,
You love me and I love you,
The black door is unnecessary.
Tell your father and mother 'there'
That if they never enjoyed love,
And if they loved each other, too, the door,
The black door, was closed on them.
But the door is not to blame,
That you are crying inside,
You love me and I love you,
The black door is unnecessary.
