La Llorona
Todos me dicen El Negro, Llorona,
negro pero cariñoso.
Yo soy como el chile verde, Llorona,
picante pero sabroso.
Ay de mi, Llorona, Llorona,
Llorona llévame al río.
Tápame con tu rebozo, Llorona,
porque me muero de frió.
Si porque te quiero quieres, Llorona,
¿quieres que te quiera más?,
Si ya te he dado la vida, Llorona
¿Qué más quieres?
¿Quieres más?
The Weeping Woman
Everyone calls me the Black One, Llorona,
Black but affectionate.
I'm like the green chile, Llorona,
spicy but delicious.
Oh my, Llorona, Llorona,
Llorona, take me to the river
Cover me with your shawl, Llorona,
because I'm dying from the cold.
Is it because I love you, Llorona,
that you wish I love you more?
I have already given you my life, Llorona,
what else do you want?
Do you want more?

Alcoba Azul
La noche ira sin prisa de nostalgia
Habrá de ser un tango nuestra herida
Un acordeón sangriento nuestras almas
Seremos esta noche todo el día
Vuelve a mí
Ámame sin luz
En nuestra alcoba azul
Donde no hubo sol para nosotros
Ciégame
Mata mi corazón
En nuestra alcoba azul
Mi Amor
The Blue Room
The night will go by without hurrying nostalgy
Our wound will be a tango
Our souls a torn and bleeding accordion
This night a whole day
Come back to me
Love me in the dark
In our blue room
Where there was no sun for us
Blind me
Kill my heart
In our blue room,
My Love

Burn It Blue
Burn
this house
Burn
it blue
Heart
running on empty
So lost
without you
But the night sky blooms with fire
And the burning bed floats higher
And she's free to fly...
Woman so weary,
spread your unbroken wings,
fly free as the swallow sings
Come to the fireworks
see the dark lady smile
She burns...
And the night sky blooms with fire
And the burning bed floats higher
And she's free to fly...
Burn this night
Black and blue
So cold in the morning
So cold without you
And the night sky blooms with fire (Y la noche que se incendia)
And the burning bed floats higher (Y la cama que se eleva)
And she's free to fly (A volar)
And all of the dark days
painted in dark grey hues
They fade with the dream of you
Wrapped in red velvet
Dancing the night away
I burn...
Midnight blue
Spread those wings
Fly free with the swallows
Fly one with the wind
Y ella es flama que se eleva
Y es un pájaro a volar
Y es un pájaro a volar
En la noche que se incendia
El infierno es este cielo
And the night sky blooms with fire (Y eres flama que se eleva)
And the burning bed floats higher (Y eres un pájaro a volar)
And she's free to fly (Y eres un pájaro a volar)
Just a spark in the sky (Y eres la noche que se incendia)
Painting heaven and hell (estrella de oscuridad)
much brighter
Burn this house
Burn it blue
Heart running on empty
So lost without you
("Frida" ST)
