Ana Gabriel "Boda Negra" lyrics

Boda Negra

Oye la historia que contome un díaEl viejo enterrador de la comarcaEra un amante que por suerte impíaSu dulce bien le arrebato la parca

Todas las noches iba al cementerioA visistar la tumba de su hermosaLa gente murmuraba con misterioEs un muerto escapado de la fosa

En una horrenda noche hizo pedazosEl mármol de la tumba abandonadaCavó la tierra y se llevó en sus brazosEl rigido esqueleto de su amada

Y allá en la triste habitacón sombríaDe un cirio fúnebre a la llama inciertaSentó a su lado la osamenta fríaY celebró sus bodas con la muerta

Ató con cintas los desnudos huesosEl yerto cráneo coronó de floresLa horrible boca la cubrió de besosY le contó sonriendo sus amores

Llevó a la novia al tálamo mullidose acostó junto a ella enamoradoy para siempre se quedó dormidoal rígido esqueleto abrazado

Black Wedding

Black WeddingListen to the story I heard one dayFrom the town's old gravediggerThere was a lover that due to bad luckHad his sweet beloved taken by the ReaperEvery night went to the cemeteryTo visit his beauty's gravePeople murmured mysteriouslyHe's a dead man escaped from the graveOn a horrible night he crumbledThe marble on the abandoned tomb Dug the earth and took the rigid skeleton of his beloved in his armsAnd there in the sad roomshaded by the unsure light of a funeral candleHe sat the cold remains by his sideAnd celebrated his vows with the dead womanHe tied the naked bones with ribbonsThe bony cranium he crowned with flowers He covered the horrible mouth with kissesAnd smiling he discussed his love with her He took the bride to the thalamus mulchand laid beside her in loveand he remained for ever asleepWith the rigid skeleton in his arms
