Paroles et traduction Miguel Aceves Mejía & El Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan - Cucurrucucú Paloma

Cucurrucucú Paloma

Dicen que por las noches
No mas se le iba en puro llorar
Dicen que no comía

No mas se le iba en puro tomar
Juran que el mismo cielo
Se estremecía al oír su llanto
Como sufrió por ella
Que hasta en su muerte la fue llamando

Ay, ay, ay ay, ay,
(Ay, ay, ay ay, ay) cantaba
Ay, ay, ay ay, ay,
(Ay, ay ay, ay, ay) gemía
Ay, ay, ay ay, 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 sus puertitas de par en par
Juran que esa paloma
No es otra cosa mas que su alma
Que todavía la espera
A que regrese la desdichada

Cucurrucucú
(Cucurrucucú) paloma
Cucurrucucú
(Cucurrucucú) no llores

Las piedras jamás,
(Las piedras jamás), paloma
Que van a saber de amor
(Que van a saber de amor), de amores

Cucurrucucú,
Cucurrucucú,
Cucurrucucú, paloma ya no le llores.

The Mourning Dove

They say every night,
He only wept
They say he did not eat,

Only drank.
They swear the sky itself
Trembled to hear his cries
How he suffered for her
Calling out her name even in death

Oh, oh, oh oh, oh,
(Oh, oh, oh oh, oh) he sang,
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh,
(Oh, oh oh, oh, oh) he sighed
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh
(Oh oh oh oh, oh) he sang

By fatal passion he died

That a sad dove
Sings each morning to him
To his empty house
With its doors wide open
They swear that this dove
Is nothing more than his soul
That waits for her still
For the wretched one to return

Mourning dove,
(Mourning dove)
Mourning dove,
(Mourning dove), do not cry

Rocks never,
(Rocks never), dove
Will understand love,
(Will understand love), of love

Mourning dove,
Mourning dove,
Mourning dove, no longer mourn for him.
