Zamba Del Negro Alegre
La zamba del negro alegre
Quien me la quiere bailar
Carnavaleando al aire
Iba con su pañuelito
Como una palomita
Queriendo volar.
De salta viene esta zamba
Y a salta quiere volver
En donde las espuelas
Cuando la estoy bailando
Me van repiqueteando
Llorando un querer.
Cuantos recuerdos queridos
Vuelven a mi soledad
Carnavaleando al aire
Iba con su pañuelito
Como una palomita
Queriendo volar.
Que lindo es cantar la zamba
Que ayer cantamos los dos
Sabiendo que tus ojos
Me estaran avispando
Se estaran alegrando
Al verme llegar.
Quiero tener la esperanza
De verte salta otra vez
Y cuando yo me sienta
Que me voy muriendo
Quedara el sentimiento
De mi corazón.
The Happy Black Man's Zamba
The zamba of the happy black man
Who wants to dance it with me
Carnivaling in the air
He went with his little handkerchief
Like a little dove
Wanting to fly.
From Salta comes this zamba
And wants to return to Salta
Where the spurs
When I'm dancing it
They keep tapping
Crying for a love.
How many dear memories
Come back to my loneliness
Carnivaling in the air
He went with his little handkerchief
Like a little dove
Wanting to fly.
How beautiful it is to sing the zamba
That we sang yesterday
Knowing that your eyes
Will be watching me closely
They will be rejoicing
To see me arrive.
I want to have the hope
To see you in Salta again
And when I feel
That I'm dying
The feeling will remain
In my heart.
