Magdalena

Español

Había una vez una rubia, Que era tan linda, tan linda Que no hay flor para igualarla. No hay quien dejó de quererla, Los que alcanzaron a verla No hacen más que recordarla. Vino trayendo alegrías Que el barrio desconocía Llenando todo de sol. Se llamaba Magdalena Y era tan buena Tan buena... Magdalena, Magdalena... Como se agranda esta pena, Al saber que nunca más He de volverme a mirar En tus ojos, Magdalena. No sé con qué frase Te llamó una estrella, Sé que te llevaron La mañana aquella. Entre flores blancas Rosas y azucenas... Magdalena, Magdalena Ya nunca más volverás.

Once upon a time there was a fair-haired girl, Who was so lovely, so lovely That there's no flower to match her. There's no one who stopped loving her, Those who managed to see her Do nothing but remember her. She came bringing gladnesses That the neighborhood had never known Filling everything with sun. Her name was Magdalena And she was so good So good... Magdalena, Magdalena... How this sorrow grows, On knowing that never again Will I see myself reflected In your eyes, Magdalena. I don't know with what words a star called you, I know that they took you away That morning. Among white flowers Roses and lilies... Magdalena, Magdalena You'll never come back now.
