Paroles et traduction Chucho Valdés & Irakere - Por Romper el Coco

Por Romper el Coco

Ay, mira tú que cosa, que esa mujer me tiene, ay, como que medio loco.

Ay bonko
Yo me vuelo loco
Y me rompo el coco
Por esa mujer.

Ay bonko
Si la conociera
Talvez comprendiera
Porque estoy así.

Si me mira
Me electriza
Si se mueve
Me estremece.

Yo estoy que me vuelvo loco
Y me rompo el coco a veces.

Ay bonko
Si la conocieras
Talvez comprendieras
Porque estoy así.

Pero, ay bonko
Si la conocieras
Talvez comprendieras
Porque estoy así.

(Por romper el coco)
Mujer yo me vuelvo loco
(Por romper el coco)
Es que me tienes muy mal
(Por romper el coco)
Ay yo no sé qué voy hacer
(Por romper el coco)
Por romperte suave el coco.

(Por romper el coco)
Hasta cuando hay que esperar
(Por romper el coco)
Ay es que me tiene muy mal, muy mal
(Por romper el coco)
No fui yo, fue Chucho quien me mando
(Por romper el coco)
A romperte el coco.

(Por romper el coco)
Y esa cara suave yo quisiera
(Por romper el coco)
Ay yo quisiera acariciar
(Por romper el coco)
Ay yo te lo juro morena
(Por romper el coco)
¡Coco, coco!

Bueno si, resulta ser
Que tienes que ponerte de acuerdo
Si quieres que te baile, te bailo
Si quieres que te cante, te cante
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
Si quieres que baile, bailo
Si quieres que rompa, rompo
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
Al ánimo, al ánimo
Que el coco se rompió
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
A gozar señores
Que se puso bueno
Ya el ambiente
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
Que bailen, que bailen
Yo bailo de todo
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
Y si la cosa se pone buena
Bailo mismo rumba que bolero y cha cha cha
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
Y te me viro con ficha
Y te bailo un buen danzón
(Si quieres que baile, bailo)
(Si quieres que rompa, rompo)
A bailar que ya se puso bueno
Aquí el ambiente, caballero a disfrutar.

A romper el coco

Coconut Cracked

Oh, look at this thing, that woman has got me, oh, as if I was half crazy.

Oh Bonko
I'm going crazy
And I'm cracking my coconut
For that woman.

Oh Bonko
If I got to know her
Perhaps I would understand
Why I'm like this.

If she looks at me
She electrifies me
If she moves
She thrills me.

I'm going crazy
And I crack my coconut sometimes.

Oh Bonko
If you got to know her
Perhaps you would understand
Why I'm like this.

But, oh Bonko
If you got to know her
Perhaps you would understand
Why I'm like this.

(Coconut Cracked)
Woman I'm going crazy
(Coconut Cracked)
It's that you have me very bad
(Coconut Cracked)
Oh I don't know what I'm going to do
(Coconut Cracked)
For breaking your coconut softly.

(Coconut Cracked)
Until when must I wait
(Coconut Cracked)
Oh it's that you have me very bad, very bad
(Coconut Cracked)
It wasn't me, it was Chucho who sent me
(Coconut Cracked)
To crack your coconut.

(Coconut Cracked)
And that soft face I would like
(Coconut Cracked)
Oh I would like to caress
(Coconut Cracked)
Oh I swear to you morena
(Coconut Cracked)
Coconut, coconut!

Well yes, it turns out to be
That you have to agree
If you want me to dance, I'll dance
If you want me to sing, I'll sing
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
If you want me to dance, I'll dance
If you want me to break, I'll break
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
At ease, at ease
That the coconut is cracked
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
Enjoy gentlemen
That it's getting good
Already the atmosphere
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
Let them dance, let them dance
I'll dance anything
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
And if the going gets good
I'll dance rumba, bolero, and cha cha cha
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
And I'll turn to you with chips
And I'll dance a good danzon for you
(If you want me to dance, I'll dance)
(If you want me to break, I'll break)
To dance, that it's already good
Here the atmosphere, gentlemen, enjoy.
