I was just a native girl,
as my father died
My mother sold me,
even though i cried

Slave-traders gave me,
to the Tabascan tribe

Living as a slave,
in the city of Tabasco
No place for me,
where i could go

But this was not the end
Strangers conquered our land

Malinalli the slave princess,
she was a traitor and a saint
La Malinche the slave princess,
lover, ally and hated renegade

A battle broke out
Tabasco took up arms
Brought to their knees,
the chieftain gave me free

I was given as a present,
to the foreign men

I became the mistress
of Hernan Cortes
He was their leader
and i helped him to success

I bore our son and
all my suffering was gone

Malinalli the slave princess,
she was a traitor and a saint
La Malinche the slave princess,
lover, ally and hated renegade

My beloved tried to free two spanish men
They had been captured years ago
One of them rejoined us gratefully
and his name was Geronimo de Aguilar
The other one, Gonzalo Guerrero
sided with my people and fought the Spaniards

Malinalli the slave princess,
she was a traitor and a saint
La Malinche the slave princess,
lover, ally and hated renegade
