Fiesta de San Benito

Saint Benito's Party

Fiesta de San Benito

Where is my black woman dancingDónde está mi negra bailando
With the tundiki skirts, dancingCon las sayas de tundiki, bailando

Where has my black woman goneDónde se ha metido mi negra
Carrying her little one, dancingCargada de su guagüita, bailando

Black woman, samba, even if mischievousNegra, samba, aunque tunante
Always moving forwardSiempre adelante

There's a parrot with its little monkeyHay un lorito con su monito
It's a gift from Saint BenitoEs un regalo de San Benito
For the party of the little black onesPara la fiesta de los negritos

An old man with his horseUn viejo caña con su caballo
They are sleeping in their cabinEstán durmiendo en su cabaña

We're leaving, we're leaving singingYa nos vamos, ya nos vamos cantando
We're leaving, we're leaving dancingYa nos vamos ya nos vamos bailando
With the tundiki skirts singingCon las sayas de tundiki cantando
With the tundiki skirts dancingCon las sayas de tundiki bailando
