Lyrics of Negra Maria - Raphael

Negra Maria (original)

Hay bruna, brunaNacio maria y esta en la cunaNacio de dia sin ver la
lunaGuardara la madre su vestido blancoY se ira a la fiesta con un traje largoY
sera la reina cuando maria cumpla quince aÑosLe llamaremos negra mariaNegra
maria que abriste los ojos en carnaval
Ojos grandes tendra mariaDientes de nacar, color moreno
¡ay!
que rojos seran sus labios
¡ay!
que cadencia tendra su cuerpo
Amara el baile, negra mariaNegra la madre, negra la niÑaCantaran para tiUnas
guitarras y los violinesY los resongos del bandoleonLa llamaremos negra
mariaNegra maria que abriste los ojos en carnaval
Hay bruna, brunaMurio maria y esta en la cunaMurio de dia sin ver la lunaYa no
guardara la madre su vestido blancoNi se ira de fiesta con un traje largoNi
sera la reina cuando cumpla quince aÑosLe lloraremos, negra mariaNegra maria
cerrastes los ojos en carnaval
¡ay!
que triste fue tu destinoAngel de mota, color moreno
¡ay!
que triste sera tu destino
¡ay!
que silencio tendra tu cuerpo
Llora la madre, duerme la niÑaNegra, sangraran para tiLas guitarras y los
violinesY los resongos del bandoleonLe lloraremos negra mariaNegra maria,
cerrastes los ojos en carnaval

There is bruna, bruna Maria was born and she is in the cradle She was born during the day without seeing the
Luna Will keep her mother her white dress And she will go to the party with a long dress And
she will be the queen when maria turns fifteen We will call her black mariaNegra
maria you opened your eyes in carnival
Maria will have big eyes Mother-of-pearl teeth, brown
Oh!
How red will her lips be?
Oh!
what cadence will your body have
Amara the dance, black maria Black the mother, black the girl They will sing for you Unas
guitars and violins and the rumbles of the bandoleon we'll call her black
mariaBlack maria who opened your eyes in carnival
There is bruna, bruna Maria died and she is in the cradle She died during the day without seeing the moon Not anymore

She will be the queen when she turns fifteen We will mourn her, black maria Black maria

violins and the clamor of the bandoleon we will mourn him black maria black maria,
