Lyrics

Caetano Veloso - Maria Bonita

Acuérdate de Acapulco
De aquellas noches
María bonita, María del alma

Acuérdate que en la playa
Con tus manitas
Las estrellitas las enjuagabas

Tu cuerpo del mar juguete
Nave al garete
Venían las olas lo columpiaban

Mientras yo te miraba
Lo digo con sentimiento
Mi pensamiento me traicionaba

Te dije muchas palabras
De esas bonitas
Con que se arrullan los corazones

Pidiendo que me quisieras
Que convirtieras en realidades mis ilusionesCaetano Veloso - Maria Bonita - http://motolyrics.com/caetano-veloso/maria-bonita-lyrics-english-translation.html

La luna que nos miraba ya hacia ratito

Se hizo un poquito desentendida
Y cuando la vi escondida
Me arrodille pa´ besarte
Y así entregarte toda mi vida

Amores habrás tenido
Muchos amores
María bonita, María del alma
Pero ninguno tan bueno Ni tan honrado

Como el que hiciste que en mi brotara
Lo traigo lleno de flores
Como una ofrenda
Para dejarlo bajo tus plantas

Recíbelo emocionada
Y júrame que no mientes
Porque te sientes idolatrada

English translation

Caetano Veloso - Pretty Maria (English translation)

Remember in Acapulco
Those nights
Pretty Maria, Maria from my soul
Remember on the beach
How you rinsed the stars
With your arms

Your body, sea toy, adrift boat
Waves were coming, they swunged it
While I was looking at you,
I say it with feelings
My thoughts betrayed me.

I've told you so much beautiful words
With which hearts are being lulled
Asking from you to love me,
To realise my illusions.

The Moon who was watching usCaetano Veloso - Maria Bonita - http://motolyrics.com/caetano-veloso/maria-bonita-lyrics-english-translation.html
Stayed little long
It mused itself.
And when I saw him hidden
I kneeled to kiss you
And so give you my life.

Loves, you've had much loves
Pretty Maria, Maria from my soul
But none of them, so good nor so honoured
Like the one you made when you betrayed me

I bring you much flowers
Like an insult
To leave it among your plants
Receive them emotionally
And swear you're not lying
Because you're feeling idealized.
