Mari Carmen was a gypsy
Pure with a tanned complexion
More than a girl
She was a sculpture of dark metal
Her hair was like a sloe
She was wearing a flower in two stages
And she was the most beautiful and finest gypsy
That someone has taken away
That great painter
And when people admired her image
The poor gypsy sang to her that way
Mari Carmen I camelo
Because you are a carnation
That from earth to heaven
Everything is transmitted
From your little words carnations are born
Mari Carmen, let me tell you
When she was famous
She despised the gypsy and abandoned him ³
And although she had fortune in her hands
It was of no use to her
That when she saw herself so far from the one who loved her
She did not find in money the happiness
And as he went through the world he lost his joy
Like those flowers that are transplanted
And seeing the portrait that the world admired
The poor gypsy like this with dukes
He sang to her
Mari Carmen I camelo
Because you are a carnation
That from the earth to the sky
It transmits everything
Of your little words carnations are born
Mari Carmen, let me come to you
Jasmine and roses your body smells
Mari Carmen, let me come to you
