Cu-Cu-Rru-Cu-Cu Paloma - Joan Baez traduction en anglais

Cu-Cu-Rru-Cu-Cu Paloma

Dicen que por las noches
Nomás se le iba en puro llorar
Dicen que no dormía
Nomás se le iba en puro tomar

Juran que el mismo cielo
Se estremecía al oír su llanto
Cómo sufrió por ella
Que hasta en su muerte
La fue llamando

Ay, ay, ay, ay, cantaba
Ay, ay, ay, ay, gemía
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, cantaba
De pasión mortal moría

Que una paloma triste
Muy de mañana le va a cantar
A la casita sola
Con las puertitas de par en par

Juran que esa paloma
No es otra cosa más que su alma
Que todavía la espera
A que regrese la desdichada

Cucurrucucú, paloma
Cucurrucucú, no llores
Las piedras jamás, paloma
Qué van a saber de amores

Cucurrucucú, cucurrucucú
Cucurrucucú, paloma ya no le llores

Coo-Coo-Roo-Coo-Coo Dove

They say that at night
He only spent his time weeping
They say he didn't sleep
He only spent his time drinking

They swear that the very sky
Trembled upon hearing his weeping
How he suffered for her
That even in his death
He was calling her name

Ay, ay, ay, ay, he sang
Ay, ay, ay, ay, he moaned
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, he sang
He was dying of a mortal passion

That a sad dove
Very early in the morning will sing to him
To the lonely little house
With its little doors wide open

They swear that this dove
Is nothing more than his soul
That still waits for her
For the unfortunate one to return

Cucurrucucú, dove
Cucurrucucú, don't cry
The stones will never, dove
Know anything about love

Cucurrucucú, cucurrucucú
Cucurrucucú, dove, don't cry for him anymore
