Maria tristeza

Não tem mais o riso das flores da serra

Não tem mais os olhos mais lindos da terra

Não tem mais o céu de ilusões pra sonhar

Maria tristeza

Não vê mais a beleza nas coisas da vida

Seu mundo de agora é um lar sem comida

Que o joão coitado, tão pobre, coitado

Não pode aguentar

João pobreza

Não tem mais vontade de ter alegria

Sentindo a miséria matar todo dia

Seu corpo cansado de não descansar

João pobreza

Não tem mais coragem de ter esperança

Quem vive ao seu lado é a triste lembrança

Da mesa vazia da pobre maria

Querendo chorar

Querendo chorar

Querendo chorar

Querendo chorar

Querendo chorar
