Jacinta estaba contenta, y su marido también, a pesar de la melancolía
llorona del paisaje; pero como había otros viajeros en el vagón, los
recién casados no podían entretener el tiempo con sus besuqueos y
tonterías de amor.

Jacinta was happy, and so was her husband, despite the tearful melancholy of the landscape; but as there were other travelers in the carriage, the newlyweds could not while away the time with their kissing and silly romance.

your version is ok also but melancholy is also a adjective, almost similar to melancholic. More used in litterature than everyday speech.
by Boot2 1 month, 4 weeks agoAs an adjective, you'd say: '...despite the tearfully melancholic landscape....' I'd stick with 'melancholy' as a noun.
