Lyrics and translation Alex Anwandter - Latinoamericana




Latinoamericana
South American Woman
Ya no aguanto esas imágenes
I can't stand these images anymore
De niños blancos y ojos azulinos
Of white children with blue eyes
Esa voz que se les quebró
Their voice that broke
Y sus labios seduciendo matutinos
And their lips tempting in the morning
Y yo, negro de amor
And I, black with love
Ni niño, ni ruiseñor
Not a child, nor a nightingale
Antes de los españoles
Before the Spaniards
Nadie te amenazaba con sus juicios
No one threatened you with their judgments
Este tiempo no es virtuoso
Our times are not virtuous
No debemos confundirnos con sus vicios
We must not be confused by their vices
Soy yo, negro de amor
I am, black with love
Ni niño, ni ruiseñor
Not a child, nor a nightingale
Perfecto entero
Perfect whole
Para eres como una flor
To me you are like a flower
Tristeza linda, mi vida contigo es amor
My life with you is beautiful sadness
Yo soy americano
I am American
Va a ser un buen año
It's going to be a great year
Te lo prometo
I promise
A la fila eterna de hombres blancos muertos
To the eternal column of white men
Que nos vienen a educarnos
Who come to educate us
Les decimos que mujeres, que la banda
We tell them that women, that the band
Tienen sabor y que la luna...
Have flavor and that the moon...
Y que yo soy negro de amor
And that I am black with love
Ni niño, ni ruiseñor
Not a child, nor a nightingale
Perfecto entero
Perfect whole
Para eres como una flor
To me you are like a flower
El hombre blanco es un diablo
The white man is a devil
Y eres amor
And you, are love
Yo soy americano
I am American
Va a ser un buen año
It's going to be a great year
Te lo prometo
I promise
