The One with the White Shawl

La Del Rebozo Blanco

That white shawl she's wearingEse rebozo blanco que lleva puesto
And with jokes and laughter, she shows it offY entre bromas y risas viene luciendo
No one knows the sorrows she hides insideNadie sabe las penas que lleva dentro
No one knows the sorrows she’s covering upNadie sabe las penas que va cubriendo

Her pride suffers, wounded by disdainSufre su orgullo herido por el desprecio
And instead of curling up sad to cryY en vez de arrinconarse triste a llorar
Today she dresses like a brideHoy se viste de boda como una novia
With her white shawl to singCon su rebozo blanco para cantar

Oh, who couldAy, quién pudiera
Under a shawl, my love, hide the painDebajo de un rebozo, cariño mío, tapar las penas
Under a shawl hide the painDebajo de un rebozo tapar las penas
Hide the pain, hide the painTapar las penas, tapar las penas

They now call her the one with the white shawlLa del rebozo blanco, ahora le dicen
Because they see her dressed all in orange blossomPorque la ven vestida toda de azahar
And many would like to see her in blackY es que muchos quisieran verla de negro
And many would like to see her cryingY es que muchos quisieran verla llorando

And even though they’ve shattered her whole lifeY aunque le han destrozado toda su vida
And even though she’s always in mourning insideY aunque siempre de luto por dentro va
She covers it all with her shawlElla todo lo cubre con su rebozo
And she doesn’t care about the world or its wickednessY no le importa el mundo ni su maldad

Oh, who couldAy, quién pudiera
Under a shawl, my love, hide the painDebajo de un rebozo, cariño mío, tapar las penas
Under a shawl hide the painDebajo de un rebozo tapar las penas
Hide the painTapar las penas
Hide the painTapar las penas

Hide the painTapar las penas
