Текст и перевод песни Teresa Parodi - María Candela

María Candela

María candela, no te pongas triste
Que yo te quiero, le dice el ramón
A la negrita de los ojos bellos
Que es la alegría de su corazón

Que con la changa alcanza para un tiempo
Eso ya es algo, dame la razón
Ya habrá manera de salir palante
María candela, no me digas no

María candela, no te pongas triste
Que yo te quiero, repite el ramón
María candela, que el amor existe
Dice mi madre y te lo digo yo

Van abrazados por la veredita
Qué hermoso es verlos bajo el resplandor
De la mañana que florece limpia
Sobre los techos de chapa y cartón

Con qué esperanza se los ve abrazados
A la esperanza de vivir mejor
La changa alcanza para esa esperanza
Pero es injusto, te lo digo yo

María candela, no te pongas triste
Que yo te quiero, le dice el ramón
María candela, que el amor existe
Dice mi madre y te lo digo yo

No te pongas triste, que el amor existe
Lo dice mi madre te lo digo yo
No te pongas triste, la esperanza existe
Lo dice mi madre y te lo digo yo

Maria Candela

Maria Candela, don't be sad
For I love you, says Ramon
To the little dark-skinned beauty
Who is the joy of his heart

For with the odd job, we'll make it through
That's something, I think you'll agree
We'll find a way to move forward
Maria Candela, don't say no to me

Maria Candela, don't be sad
For I love you, repeats Ramon
Maria Candela, love does exist
My mother said it, and I'm telling you

They walk, arm in arm, along the path
It's beautiful to see them in the glow
Of a bright new morning, rising clean
Over the roofs of tin and cardboard

With such hope they walk, arm in arm
In the hope of a better life
The odd job gives them that hope
But it's unfair, and I'm telling you

Maria Candela, don't be sad
For I love you, says Ramon
Maria Candela, love does exist
My mother said it, and I'm telling you

Don't be sad, for love does exist
My mother said it, and I'm telling you
Don't be sad, for hope does exist
My mother said it, and I'm telling you
