Paroles et traduction Mijares - María Bonita

María Bonita

Acuérdate de Acapulco
De aquellas noches
María bonita, María del alma

Acuérdate que en la playa
Con tus manitas
Las estrellitas, las enjuagabas

Tu cuerpo del mar juguete
Nave al garete
Venían las olas, lo columpiaban

Y mientras yo te miraba
Lo digo con sentimiento
Mi pensamiento me traicionaba

Te dije muchas palabras
De esas bonitas
Con que se arrullan, los corazones

Pidiendo que me quisieras
Que convirtieras
En realidades, mis ilusiones

La luna que nos miraba
Ya hacía un ratito
Se hizo un poquito desentendida

Y cuando la vi escondida
Me arrodillé pa' besarte
Y así entregarte toda mi vida

Amores habrás tenido
Muchos amores
María Bonita, María del alma

Pero ninguno tan bueno
Ni tan honrado
Como el que hiciste que en mí brotara

Lo traigo lleno de flores
Como una ofrenda
Para postrarla, bajo tus plantas

Recíbelo emocionada
Y júrame que no mientes
Porque te sientes, idolatrada

Pretty Mary

Remember Acapulco
Those nights
Pretty Mary, my beloved Mary

Remember on the beach
With your little hands
You would wash the little stars

Your body, a playmate of the sea
A drifting ship
The waves came and rocked you

And while I watched you
I say it with feeling
My thoughts betrayed me

I said many words to you
Those sweet words
With which hearts are wooed

Asking you to love me
To turn
My dreams into reality

The moon that watched us
Had already been there a while
It pretended not to notice

And when I saw it hidden
I knelt to kiss you
And so give you my whole life

You must have had lovers
Many lovers
Pretty Mary, my beloved Mary

But none as good
Or as honorable
As the one you made blossom in me

I bring it to you full of flowers
As an offering
To lay it at your feet

Receive it with emotion
And swear to me that you are not lying
Because you feel adored
