Lyrics Enric Granados La Maja Dolorosa I (Englisch)

The Sorrowful Maja I

Oh, cruel death! Why traitor have you
taken away my “majo” from my passion?
I do not want to live without him,
for to live like this is to die.
It is not possible to feel more pain:
my soul is in tears.
Oh God! Give me back my love,
for to live like this is to die.
