Por una mujer casada

For a married woman

Por una mujer casada

For a married woman they tell me I must diePor una mujer casada me dicen que he de morir
lies don't affect mementiras no me hacen nada
if she wants to follow mesi ella me quiere seguir
To erase the attemptpara borrar el intento
I will take her awayyo me la voy a llevar
To spend the seasonpa pasar la temporada
then I'll bring her backluego se las vuelvo a traer

Come, beloved black womanvente negra consentida
Don't worry anymorereselo no teengas ya
If I have to lose my lifeque si yo he de perder la vida
God will decidedispuesto dios lo tendra
Luck touches us bothla suerte a los dos nos toca
You are alone in my lovetu estas solo en mi querer
Your husband no longer breathestu marido ya no sopla
You will be my womantu vas a ser mi mujer

The raven with so many feathersel cuervo con tantas plumas
couldn't sustain itselfno se pudo mantener
and I, who have no feathersy yo que ni plumas tengo
have a beloved and a womantengo querida y mujer

For a married woman they tell me I must diepor una mujer casada me dicen que he de morir
lies don't affect mementiras no me hacen nada
if she wants to follow mesi ella me quiere seguir
