Desde temprano la niña reza
From early the girl prays
Pa'que su dia, no sea tan largo
So that her day is not so long
Y con la luz de madrugada
And with the light of dawn
Hace limpieza de sus encargos
She cleans her errands
Cierra los ojos pa'no mirarse
She closes her eyes so as not to look at herself
En el espejo se va notando
In the mirror she notices herself
Su trabajo la esta acabando
Her work is finishing
Esque su santo esta en descanzo
It's because her saint is resting
Todos los dias todas las horas
Every day every hour
En esa espuma de sus triztesas
In that foam of her sadness
Uñas y carne, sudor y fuerzas
Nails and flesh, sweat and strength
Todo su empeño, todos sus sueños
All her efforts, all her dreams
Se van quedando en sus recuerdos
They remain in their memories
En la memoria de sus ahnelos
In memory of your dreams
Hay melena negra carita triste rosa maria
There is black hair, sad face, Rosa Maria
Buscando vives tus dias y noches una salida
Looking for you live your days and nights a way out
Que un domingo libra este infierno
That a Sunday frees this hell
Tuyo por tu alegria
Yours for your joy
Maquiladora solo un recuerdo sera algun dia
Maquiladora will only be a memory one day
Y la cosecha tu propio fruto sera algun dia
And the harvest your own fruit will be one day
Y a la desaparecida le haran justicia
And they will do justice to the disappeared
Se hara algun dia un dia, un dia
It will be done someday, one day, one day
Hay melena negra carita triste rosa maria
There is black hair, sad face, Rosa Maria
Buscando vives tus dias y noches una salida
Looking for you live your days and nights a way out
Que un domingo libra este infierno
That a Sunday frees this hell
Tuyo por tu alegria
Yours for your joy
Que redimidos sean tus patrones
May your patrons be redeemed
Sera algun dia y que la humildad se vuelva
It will be one day and that humility becomes
Orgullo sera algun dia
Pride will be one day
Y que seas igual a los demas sera algun dia
And that you be the same as the others, it will be some day
Sera algun dia un dia, un dia
It will be someday a day, a day
