Todo cuesta y cada precio es diferente

En un mundo en que la gente

Compra su felicidad

Juana Mayo, peregrina de la acera
Juana Mayo, pilgrim of the sidewalk
Veterana de la espera

Callejera flor de amor
Street flower of love
En sus noches de hombre en hombre
In his nights from man to man
Va pasando, desesperado buscando
It's happening, desperately looking for
Su razón para vivir

Ríe por fuera y por dentro está llorando
Laughs on the outside and inside is crying
Pues lo que ella está buscando
Well, what she's looking for
No lo va a encontrar así
You're not going to find it that way.
Juana Mayo, ave de la madrugada

De tristeza disfrazada
Of sadness in disguise
Con perfumes y carmín

Juana Mayo, donde anónimos señores

Sacan a pasear dolores
They take pains for a walk
A un jardín de soledad

De Juana Mayo, Dime varón

Si tú te acuerdas de ella
