Genius English Translations - Mecano Hijo De La Luna English Translation Lyrics

[Intro]
Foolish is he who fails to understand
A legend recounts
That a Romani woman
Invoked the moon to sunrise
And crying she begged
Upon that day's dawn
To wed a Romani

[Verse 1]
"You shall have your dark-skinned man,"
Said the full moon in the sky
"But in exchange
I want the first child
That you shall bear with him
For one who is willing to sacrifice their child
In order to not be alone
Would have loved them little"

[Chorus]
Moon, you wish to be a mother
And can't find a lover
Who will make you a woman
Tell me, silver pane moon
What is it you intend to do with a child of flesh and blood?
Lalala, lalalalala
Son of the moon
[Verse 2]
From a cinnamon-skinned fathеr came a child
White as the back of an еrmine
His eyes gray instead of olive
An albino son of the moon
"Damned is his appearance, this child is of a non-Roma
And I shall not fall for it"

[Chorus]
Moon, you wish to be a mother
And can't find a lover
Who will make you a woman
Tell me, silver pane moon
What is it you intend to do with a child of flesh and blood?
Lalala, lalalalala
Son of the moon

[Bridge]
The Romani man, having believed himself dishonored
Confronted his woman, knife in hand
"Whose child is this? You've played me well,"
And to death he stabbed her
And afterwards he climbed the mountain, the child in hand
And there he abandoned it

[Chorus]
Moon, you wish to be a mother
And can't find a lover
Who will make you a woman
Tell me, silver pane moon
What is it you intend to do with a child of flesh and blood?
Lalala, lalalalala
Son of the moon
[Outro]
And in the nights of the full moon
The moon is such for the child is happy
And if the boy cries
The moon shall wane to make for him a cradle
And if the boy cries
The moon shall wane to make for him a cradle
