La Pollera Colorá

The Colorful Skirt

La Pollera Colorá

Oh, when the drums soundAy, al sonar los tambores
That black woman gets readyEsa negra se amaña
And to the sound of the caneY al sonar de la caña
She offers her loveVa brindando sus amores
It's the black SoledadEs la negra Soledad
Who enjoys my cumbiaLa que goza mi cumbia

That dancing black woman, oh my goodnessEsa negra bailadora oye caramba
With her colorful skirtCon su pollera colorá.
That's why I sayPor eso digo
That pretty little black girl, oh my goodnessEsa negrita linda oye caramba
With her colorful skirtCon su pollera colorá
From here to there, Soledad moves with graceDe aquí p'allá como sandunguea Soledad
With her colorful skirtCon su pollera colorá
Let's dance, let's enjoy, oh my goodnessVamo' a bailar, vamo' a gozar oye caramba
With her colorful skirtCon su pollera colorá
From here to there, from there to here, my SoledadDe aquí p'allá, de allá p'acá mi Soledad
With her colorful skirtCon su pollera colorá

Oh, when Soledad dancesAy cuando baila Soledad
Everyone watches herTodo el mundo la mira
When she movesCuando ella se mueve
