La Negra No Ha Bailao

The Black Woman Has Not Danced

La Negra No Ha Bailao

The black woman says she hasn't dancedLa negra dice que ella no ha bailao
Because everywhere she's turnedPorque a todas partes que ha volteao
Everyone wants to dance closelyTodos quieren bailar arrepegao
And the black woman feels suffocated when pressed togetherY la negra se sofoca muy juntao
And the black woman feels suffocated when pressed togetherY la negra se sofoca muy juntao

She waits for her partner, who hasn't arrivedEspera a su pareja, no ha llegao
It seems she's already become desperateParece que ya ella se ha desesperao
The black woman has taken off her shoesLa negra los zapatos se ha quitao
And she, without a partner, has ventured outY ella sola sin pareja se ha aventao
And she, without a partner, has ventured outY ella sola sin pareja se ha aventao

The black woman says she hasn't dancedLa negra dice que ella no ha bailao
Because everywhere she's turnedPorque a todas las partes que ha volteao
Everyone wants to dance closelyTodos quieren bailar arrepegao
And the black woman feels suffocated when pressed togetherY la negra se sofoca muy juntao

Everyone, upon seeing her, is surprisedTodos, al mirarla, se hallan sorprendidos
But for a while, they have followed herPero por un rato a ella la han seguido
They form a circle and she leads from the frontForman una rueda y ella por delante
Follow that black woman and she walks confidentlySigan a esa negra y ella muy campante
