Soledad Bravo - dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre
English
A A
Chamamé to Cuba
One day in January I took my canoe for a strollThey told me to take care of yourself, and that with the storm I would be lost
But I'm a brave correntino1 on my payment and a delta connoisseur
I set off with the first sunset lights
When it was as dark as a wolf's mouth, I was going to go back
But the deceptive river pushed me to the seashore
And discouraged, seeing no more coast to distract
My stomach I began to count the stars and think
I was thinking about how little a man is worth when he's so alone
But I had an idea that at that moment made me react
I'll do a feat like Vito Dumas2 I'll be Marco Polo
And when I return to my payment all the guairas will want to kiss me
And after a few days of sailing
I was happy because I already believed Christopher Columbus
And I was sad when I saw another spot on the horizon
That wasn't a whale, but was land, damn it, how joyful
When I stepped to the ground and sniffed, if it was Corrientes3
And when I saw a peasant with a rifle, I asked him
If rancho La Cambicha4 was far away, he replied kindly:
'You are in Cuba, a socialist country, the land of Fidel'
I wanted to go back because of what I read in La Prensa5
But seeing Cubans work happy for the future
Today the land is everyone's, there are no illiterates and even a child thinks
That whoever comes to Cuba with a war can't leave
Because those rifles that yesterday aimed at the oppressed people
Are the ones that today defend in the hands of the people their revolution
Are the ones who include cops with two last names in my payment
Are the ones that we will have Moncho Raela, Jesusa and Ramón
And with my canoe and my chamamé6
I left Raúl Roa7 and had my eye on my payment again
And to the correntines I must be faithful to them, and here I end up
May the yankees die, long live Fidel!
