Dying in May

Oh, sister
Oh, sister, will you go back to the flowers?

Oh, sister
Oh, sister, will you go back to the flowers

Walking up the staircase (Maria, on the staircase of your uncle)
Walking up the staircase in the houses of your aunts and uncle

Oh, sister (her fever would come back at night)
Oh, sister, will you come back to the flowers?
Her fever would come back at night
Oh sister, will you come back to the flowers? (She'd search the streets for her children)

Walking up the staircase (Maria)
Maria, when I was born (Maria, on the staircase of your uncle)

Maria

Oh, sister
Oh, sister, won't you go back to the flowers?
Oh, sister, won't you go back to the flowers?
Maria

She'd search the streets for her children
Her fever would come back at night
Walking up the staircase
Maria

Her fever would come back at night
She'd search the streets for her children
Oh, sister
Maria

Oh sister, won't you go back to the flowers?
Maria, on the staircase of your uncle
