The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Disse adeus aos pais, adeus à montanha
Por trinta dinheiros desceu à cidade
Maria-criada para servir às ordens,
Maria-mulher de menor idade.
Maria tão só numa casa cheia,
Maria tão cheia de se sentir só
Entrega o seu corpo, quer criar raízes
Oferece amor e recebe dó.
Maria que chora, que se entrega a outros,
E a cada domingo não os vê voltar,
Maria que aprende a usar o corpo
Por mais dez dinheiros, para se enfeitar
Perdida por um, perdida por mil
A família longe, sem saber de nada,
Maria-senhora para servir à hora,
Veste-se de seda, já não é criada. (bis)
