Oh, hear her cry
By riverbank
No lullaby
Can bring them back
For now, they sleep
Forever cold
And now she weeps and weeps
Haunting us all

She takes their hands
And down she leads
To shady riverbanks
To make them sleep

La llorona
La llorona
Love made her weep
So now they'll sleep

She takes their hands
And down she leads
To shady riverbanks
To make them sleep

La llorona
La llorona
Love made her weep
So now they'll sleep
