Lyrics and translation Inti Illimani - La Negrita




La Negrita
The Little Black Girl
Yo tenía una negrita
I had a little black girl
Que la amaba y la quería,
Whom I loved and adored,
Un día la vi llorando
One day I saw her crying
Sin saber lo que tenía.
Without knowing what was wrong.
Esta negrita diabla,
This little black devil,
Caramba, se metió un día
Damn, she went one day
A la casa del otro,
To the house of another,
Caramba, que ella tenía.
Damn, that she had.
Que ella tenía, ay sí,
That she had, oh yes,
Caramba, negra chinchosa,
Damn, naughty black woman,
Ya no te estoy queriendo,
I don't love you anymore,
Caramba, por veleidosa.
Damn, for being capricious.
Esta negrita astuta,
This clever little black girl,
Caramba, vendía fruta.
Damn, she sold fruit.
