Lyrics of La Cama de Piedra - Amália Rodrigues

La Cama de Piedra (original)

De piedra ha de ser la cama
De piedra la cabecera
La mujer que a mi me quiera
Me ha de querer de a de veras
Ay, ay, corazon porque no me amas
Subi a la sala del crimen
Le pregunte al presidente
Que si es delito quererte
Que me sentencien a muerte
Ay, ay, corazon porque no amas
El dia que a mi me maten
Que sea de cinco balazos
Why estar cerquita de ti
Para morir en tus brazos
Ay, ay, corazon porque no amas
Por caja quiero un sarape
Por cruz de mis dobles cananas
Why escriban sobre mi tumba
Mi ultimo adios con mis balas
Ay, ay, corazon porque no amas

(translation)

The bed must be made of stone
of stone the head
The woman who loves me
She must really love me
Oh, oh, heart, why don't you love me?
I went up to the crime room
I asked the president
That if it is a crime to love you
sentence me to death
Oh, oh, heart, why don't you love?
The day they kill me
Let it be five shots
Why be close to you
to die in your arms
Oh, oh, heart, why don't you love?
Per box I want a serape
By cross of my double cartridge belts
Why write on my grave
My last goodbye with my bullets
Oh, oh, heart, why don't you love?
