Paroles et traduction Leo Mattioli - Angelitos Negros

Angelitos Negros

Pintor nacido en mi tierra
Con el pincel extranjero
Pintor que sigues el rumbo
De tantos pintores viejos
Aunque la virgen sea blanca
Pintame angelitos negros
Que tambien se van al cielo
Todos los negritos buenos
Pintor si pintas con amor
Porque desprecias su color
Si sabes que en el cielo
Ahi tambien los quiere dios
Siempre que pintas iglesias
Pintas angelitos bellos
Pero nu8nca te acordaste
De pintar un angel negro

Black Angels

Painter born in my land
With a foreign brush
Painter who follows the course
Of so many old painters
Even if the virgin is white
Paint me black angels
Who also go to heaven
All the good little black people
Painter, if you paint with love
Why do you despise their color
If you know that in heaven
God wants them too
Whenever you paint churches
You paint beautiful little angels
But you never remembered
To paint a black angel
