Translation:

Why do you have such large eyes? Why do you have such smooth[lit. tight] skin? Why do you have such large breasts? Why are you so well-built?

"Grandmother, Grandmother Why are you still so young?"

Whoever wants to be beautiful must suffer, my child The world will envy you, my child Don't you know, whoever sells their soul to Hell Will be forever young, beautiful and slim with a flat belly And I know you want that too

Why do you have such slim legs? Why do you have such full hair? Why do you have such thick lips? Why are you so strange?

"Grandmother, Grandmother Why are you still so young?"

Whoever wants to be beautiful must suffer, my child The world will envy you, my child Don't you know, whoever sells their soul to Hell Will be forever young, beautiful and slim with a flat belly And I know you want that too

Listen to me Whoever wants to be beautiful must endure so much pain Do not look into my heart, my child Whoever wants to be beautiful must have so many wounds Do not look into my heart

Whoever wants to be beautiful must suffer, my child The world will envy you, my child Don't you know, whoever sells their soul to Hell Will be forever young, beautiful and slim with a flat belly And I know you want that too

Whoever wants to be beautiful must suffer, my child

Don't you know, whoever orders their body in Hell Remains forever young, successful and is rolling in cash And that is what counts

/Translation

This is a song about how superficial and materialistic the world is.
