Polca Del Curandero

Healer's Polka

Polca Del Curandero

In the lands of SarandiEn los pago e Sarandi
There was black EsmeraldoTaba el negro Esmeraldo
He healed the lovesicknessCuraba el mal de amores
He cured you from frightTe curaba del espanto
An old woman appearedUna vieja apareció
Asking for the remedyPidiendo la vencedura
She couldn't dance anymoreYa no podía bailar
Her legs were stiffTenía las piernas duras

Dance and danceBaile que te baile
The accordion enchants youTe embruja el acordeon
Dance and danceBaile que te baile
The Moon with the SunLa Luna con el Sol

Believe it or burstCreer o reventar
To the bone-setter of SarandiAl huesero e Sarandi
When the Sun said goodbyeCuando el Sol se despedía
The evils surrenderedLas maldades se rendian
A blow to healBaqueanazo pa curar
Everything that crossed his pathTodo lo que se cruzaba
He played the accordionÉl tocaba el acordeon
And even healed your soulY hasta él alma te curaba

Dance and danceBaile que te baile
The accordion enchants youTe embruja el acordeon
Dance and danceBaile que te baile
The Moon with the SunLa Luna con el Sol
