| Lele looks at herself, satisfied
| Lele se mira satisfecha
|
| Even though everyone thinks her lost
| Aunque todos la crean perdida
|
| And the mirror sends her face back to her:
| Y el espejo le devuelve la cara:
|
| Even it didn’t recognize her
| Ni siquiera la reconoció.
|
| Her mother worked hard
| Su madre trabajaba duro
|
| And certainly didn’t die for love;
| Y ciertamente no murió por amor;
|
| She remembers nothing of her father
| Ella no recuerda nada de su padre
|
| Just a distant idea of rancor
| Solo una idea lejana de rencor
|
| And then she had wide hips
| Y luego ella tenía caderas anchas
|
| And four mouths to feed
| Y cuatro bocas que alimentar
|
| And, at night, not even dreams
| Y, por la noche, ni siquiera los sueños
|
| Only specters to forget
| Solo espectros para olvidar
|
| And now she looks at herself and laughs
| Y ahora se mira y se rie
|
| And her eyes lose their color
| Y sus ojos pierden su color
|
| Surely she would never have hoped
| Seguramente ella nunca hubiera esperado
|
| That death would take away her pain
| Que la muerte le quitaría el dolor
|
| Lele looks at herself, satisfied
| Lele se mira satisfecha
|
| Even though everyone thinks her lost
| Aunque todos la crean perdida
|
| And the mirror sends her face back to her:
| Y el espejo le devuelve la cara:
|
| Even it didn’t recognize her | Ni siquiera la reconoció. |
