La Virgen de La Macarena

The Virgin of La Macarena

La Virgen de La Macarena

At night when I go to bedDe noche cuando me acuesto
I pray to the Virgin of La MacarenaLe rezo a la virgen de la macarena
And there all alone in my roomY alli solito en mi cuarto
I tell my sorrows to the little virgin.A la virgencita le cuento mis penas.

And from the heart I askY de corazón le pido
That the woman I loveQue la hembra que yo quiera
As long as I live in this worldMientras en el mundo viva
Does not betray me.No me sea traicionera.

And my little virgin and my little virginY mi virgencita y mi virgencita
As she is so gypsyComo es tan gitana
She will make me love her, she will make me love herHara que me quiera, hara que me quiera
That Sevillian girl.Esa sevillana.

I'm looking into her eyesEstoy mirando a sus ojos
Which are like two stars fixed on mineQue son dos luceros clavaos en los mios
And that dress by its makingY ese traje por su hechura
And her face make me lose my mind.Y por su carita me quita el sentido.

Dear mother of my soulMadrecita de mi alma
If I were luckySi yo tuviera la suerte
That such a gypsy womanDe que una hembra tan gitana
Decided to believe me.Se decidiera a creerme.

And if I achieve it, if I achieve itY si lo consigo, si lo consigo
I will light a candleLe pondre una vela
To my little virgin, to my little virginA mi virgencita, a mi virgencita
Of La Macarena.De la macarena.
