Lyrics and translation Inti Illimani - Arroz Con Cocolón

Arroz Con Cocolón

Arroz con concolón
Con su vitute, ollita no más.
Buenos días, doña Francisca,
Sírvame algo de almorzar.
Yo vengo de la limpiada,
Me voy pa' Lunaguaná.
Me voy a ver a mi zamba,
Me lo ha dicho don José
Que esa cosita buena
No se debe de perder.
Bueno, adiós, doña Francisca:
Ya me voy a retirar.
Cuando me vea del ganchete
Ya verá usted, ya verá.
Cuando me vea del brazo
Del negrito Nicolás
Se va a llevar su cañazo,
Ya verá usted, ya verá

Rice with Concolón

Rice with concolón
With a little bit of spice, nothing more.
Good morning, Doña Francisca,
Serve me some lunch.
I'm coming from the fields,
I'm going to Lunaguaná.
I'm going to see my lover,
Don José told me
That this beautiful creature
Shouldn't be missed.
Well, goodbye, Doña Francisca:
I'm going now.
When you see me on the hook,
You'll see, you'll see.
When you see me on the arm
Of the little black Nicolás
You'll be in for a shock,
You'll see, you'll see
