Out of the blurry, hazy mists
 She rises.
 Her eyes filled with tears,
 Her lips constantly
 Uttering tormented, lamentous cries
 About her lost babes --
 Babes drown in the river
 By her own hands.
 For her crimes
 An eternity
 She spends
 Walking along the river
 Wailing and weeping
 For her beloved children.
 Now that you know
 The story of
La Llorna
 Take heed:
 Love and care
 For all children,
 Regardless of age,
 For they are
 Among life's truest treasures.
