Fea (original)Fea (translation)
Procurando que el mundo no la vea Trying not to let the world see her
ahí va la pobre fea there goes the poor ugly
camino del taller; workshop road;
y a su paso, cual todas la mañanas, and as he passed her, like every morning,
las burlas inhumanas the inhuman taunts
la hieren por doquier. they hurt her everywhere.
Cuando alguno le dice una torpeza When someone tells you something clumsy
inclina la cabeza she bows her head
transida de dolor, transit of pain,
y piensa con amargo desencanto: and she thinks with bitter disappointment:
Por qué se reirán tanto why will they laugh so much
de mi fealdad, ¡Señor… of my ugliness, Lord...
Una noche su viejita One night his old lady
en el cuarto llorando la encontró in her room crying he found her
y la fea, ¡pobrecita!, and the ugly one, poor thing!
la tragedia de su alma le confió; the tragedy of her soul she entrusted to him;
aquel hombre que debía that man who should
conducirla muy pronto ante el altar, lead her very soon before the altar,
con su amiga Rosalía, with her friend Rosalía de ella,
la que ella más quería, the one she loved the most,
se acaba de escapar… she just ran away...
Cada vez que la llevan a una fiesta, Every time they take her to a party,
en procura de olvido y distracción, in search of oblivion and distraction,
con el último acorde de la orquesta with the last chord of the orchestra
en su alma agoniza otra ilusión. in her soul another illusion is dying.
Sus amigas ya todas se han casado; Her friends have all gotten married;
sólo ella está huérfana de amor, only she is an orphan of love,
¡pobre fea!;poor ugly!
y ayer le han encargado and yesterday they commissioned him
el ajuar de su hermana la menor. the trousseau of her sister of her the youngest of her.
En plena juventud ya estaba vieja, In full youth she was already old,
nunca exhaló una queja, she never exhaled a complaint,
al ver tanta maldad, seeing so much evil,
soportando en su alma sola y mustia enduring in her soul of her alone and withered
como una flor de angustia, like a flower of anguish,
la cruz de su fealdad. the cross of his ugliness from her.
Para todos tenía una sonrisa; For everyone she had a smile;
fue noble, fue sumisa; she was noble, she was submissive;
su drama nadie vio. her drama no one saw.
Pero fue tan pesada su cadena, But her chain was so heavy,
tan grande fue su pena, so great was his sorrow for her,
¡que anoche se mató…That she killed herself last night...
