Esas bugambilias lyrics
Cuando esté viejita y gris,
Suspirará por última vez,
Aunque muerta, aún está allí,
Pidiendo sus hermosas bugambilias1.
Que se las pongan sobre su tumbita,
Es bien sencillo; de mármol y granito,
Y planta el agave y su pino a un lado,
Pa' que las gotas de lluvia las mantenga.
Upon her finger place a golden band,
She made an oath to Him to never wed,
To never hear the church bells ring,
Until the day has come and she is dead.
Vístela de blanco, vístela de novia,
No es de ninguno más que Él,
Así lo quiso, y así se fue,
Vístela de blanco, vístela de novia,
Así lo quiso, y así se fue.
Bury her in Chalco, bury her in Nez2,
Bury her in Puebla or Guanajuato,
Where her ancestors were laid to rest.
Su último deseo, ella lo cantó llorando:
« Cuando me muera, entiérrame a un ladito de la mi mamá, 3
Pa' que me sostenga de su manita por donde sea que vaya,
Cuando me muera, entiérrame a un ladito del mi papá,
Pa' que lo alcance de aquí y hasta el gran más allá. »
