La Mariquita (Lady Bug)
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.
Mariquita she was called
The girl that lives by the river
Cover me with your shawl
Because I am dying of cold
Because I took her away
Her mother was mad at me
Now that she is the one who takes me away
Let's see if I get mad at her
Give me a kiss Mariquita
Your mother has ordered me to do so
My mother can give me orders
But she can't tell me who to kiss
