Allá en la noche un grito
There in the night a scream
Y se escucha lejano
And it sounds distant
Cuentan al sur
They count south
Es la voz del silencio
It is the voice of silence
En este armario hay un gato encerrado
There is a cat locked in this closet
Porque una mujer
Because a woman
Porque una mujer
Because a woman
Defendió su derecho
She defended her right
De la montaña se escucha la voz de una rayo
From the mountain you hear the voice of lightning
Es el relámpago claro de la verdad
It is the clear lightning of truth
En esta vida santa que nadie perdona nada
In this holy life that no one forgives anything
Pero si una mujer, pero si una mujer
But yes a woman, but yes a woman
Pelea por su dignidad
Fight for your dignity
Ay, morena
Oh, brunette
Morenita mía
My brunette
No te olvidaré
I will not forget you
Ay, morena
Oh, brunette
Morenita mía
My brunette
No te olvidaré
I will not forget you
Que me doy mi lugar porque yo soy mujer
That I give myself my place because I am a woman
Y todo lo que me pasa no me lo puedo creer
And everything that happens to me I can't believe
Tanto tu y la mentira y los cholos me ven
Both you and the lies and the cholos see me
Si lo quiero o no quiero es mi gusto querer
If I want it or I don't want it, it's my pleasure to want
De tu carne a mi carne, dame un taco de res
From your meat to my meat, give me a beef taco
Los prefiero y los quiero al
I prefer them and love them
Que me dé de comer
feed me
Ya probé el que es ajeno
I already tried the one that is foreign
Es el pan que no quiero
It's the bread I don't want
Que la voluntad del cielo me mande al primero
May the will of heaven send me to the first
Que me quiera como soy
Love me like I am
A ese sí que no lo quiero
I don't want that one
A ese sí que no quiero
I don't want that one
A ese sí que no quiero
I don't want that one
Te seguí los pasos, niña
I followed in your footsteps, girl
Hasta llegar a la montaña
Until we reach the mountain
Y seguí la ruta de Dios
And I followed God's path
Que las animas acompañan
May the spirits accompany
Te seguí los pasos, niña
I followed in your footsteps, girl
Hasta llegar a la montaña
Until we reach the mountain
Y seguí la ruta de Dios
And I followed God's path
Que las animas acompañan
May the spirits accompany
Allá en la noche un grito
There in the night a scream
Y se escucha lejano
And it sounds distant
Cuentan al sur
