[English]

Mary is my love

With her alone, I live happiness

I know I could never love anyone else

Because I truly love her

That's why, Mary, please

Hand me your hand, let's keep going like this

After all, what more could I ask for?

If I am happy, very happy

If one day you're missing from my life

May God help me to die

Since I won't be

Happy in this life anymore

Without you, Mary

Without you, Mary

If I am living for you

...

Mary is my love

With her alone, I live happiness

I know I could never love anyone else

Because I truly love her

If one day you're missing from my life

May God help me to die

Since I won't be

Happy in this life anymore

Without you, Mary

Without you, Mary

If I am living for you

...

[Spanish]

Mary es mi amor

Solo con ella vivo la felicidad

Yo sé que nunca a nadie más podría amar

Porque la quiero de verdad

Por eso, Mary, por favor

Dame tu mano continuemos siempre así

Después de todo, ¿qué más te puedo pedir?

Si soy feliz, muy feliz

Si un día me faltas tú

Que Dios me ayude a morir

Ya que no volveré a ser

En esta vida, feliz

Sin ti, Mary

Sin ti, Mary

Si estoy viviendo por ti

Mary es mi amor

Solo con ella vivo la felicidad

Yo sé que nunca a nadie más podría amar

Porque la quiero de verdad

Si un día me faltas tú

Que Dios me ayude a morir

Ya que no volveré a ser

En esta vida, feliz

Sin ti, Mary

Sin ti, Mary

Si estoy viviendo por ti
