Olha, Maria
Look, Maria
Eu bem te queria
I really wanted you
Fazer uma presa
Make a prey
Da minha poesia
Of my poetry
Mas hoje, Maria
But today, Maria
Pra minha surpresa
To my surprise
Pra minha tristeza
To my sadness
Precisas partir
You need to leave
Parte, Maria
Go away, Maria
Que estás tão bonita
That you are so beautiful
Que estás tão aflita
That you are so distressed
Pra me abandonar
To abandon me
Sinto, Maria
I'm sorry, Maria
Que estás de visita
That you are visiting
Teu corpo se agita
Your body shakes
Querendo dançar
Wanting to dance
Parte, Maria
Go away, Maria
Que estás toda nua
That you are all naked
Que a lua te chama
That the moon calls you
Que estás tão mulher
That you are so woman
Arde, Maria
Burn, Maria
Na chama da lua
In the flame of the moon
Maria cigana
Gypsy Mary
Maria maré
Maria Marda
Parte cantando
Part singing
Maria fugindo
Mary running away
Contra a ventania
Against the wind
Brincando, dormindo
Playing, sleeping
Num colo de serra
In a mountain lap
Num campo vazio
In an empty field
Num leito de rio
In a riverbed
Nos braços do mar
In the arms of the sea
Vai, alegria
Go, joy
Que a vida, Maria
May life, Maria
Não passa de um dia
It's not more than a day
Não vou te prender
I won't arrest you
Corre, Maria
Run, Maria
Que a vida não espera
That life doesn't wait
É uma primavera
It's a spring
Não podes perder
You can't lose
Anda, Maria
Come on, Maria
Pois eu só teria
Well, I would only have
A minha agonia
My agony
Pra te oferecer
To offer you
Anda, Maria
Come on, Maria
Pois eu só teria
Well, I would only have
A minha agonia
My agony
Pra te oferecer
To offer you
