Текст и перевод песни Carlos Vives feat. DJ Marimonda & El Elvis Cienaguero - Eso es mondar

Eso es mondar

DJ Marimonda (Carlos Vives)
Para las Marimondas del mundo

Hay palabras del idioma que se han hecho a mala fama
Y aunque la justicia aclama, las llaman vulgaridad
Es el caso de una de ellas, la que mientan con más ganas
Pa lo bueno y pa las malas y esa palabra es mondar

(Es mondar, es mondar) Esa palabra es mondar
(Es mondar, es mondar) Y se los voy a explicar

Me perdonan mis amigos, con tamaños pensamientos
Si ya está en un documento de la Academia Real
Que es diáfana y absoluta y en lo claro no hay disputa
Quitar la piel a una fruta y entonces eso es pelar

(Eso es mondar, eso es mondar) Que significa pelar
(Eso es mondar, eso es mondar) Que significa pelar

Y con ustedes, el Elvis Cienaguero

Y si la suerte no te quiere querer
Y si la moto no te quiere arrancar
Y si el vecino no deja de joder
Sigue p'alante y dile que eso es mondar

Cuando la gente te vuelve a sorprender
Porque algo bueno te tenía que pasar
Si te parece que no hay nada mejor
Entonces dices que eso es la mondar

Ay, cuando será que el amor vendrá
Y alumbre las almas de la humanidad
Ay, cuando será, rezaba Velilla
Ay Dios mío, qué lenguas hay en Barranquilla

Desde la vía 40 de Marimondas León Caridi
Barrio Abajo, Barranquilla
Se va a caer, se va a caer, se va a caer esta mondar
Se va a caer, se va a caer, que viva el Junior tu papá

Ya se han dicho tantas cosas de esta palabra confesa
Dizque venía de Mon Dieu que exclamaban las francesas
Y en verdad es de Castilla y significa pelar
Y es que ya no hay nada igual pa'l estrés y el
Descontento que gritar: "eso es mondar!", con total convencimiento

(Es mondar, es mondar) Esa palabra es mondar
(Es mondar, es mondar) Esa palabra es mondar
(Es mondar, es mondar) Esa palabra es mondar
(Es mondar, es mondar) Esa palabra es mondar

Y si el que tiene ya no quiere entender
Y si el que mata no deja de matar
Y si el que miente no deja de mentir
Sigue p'alante y dile que eso es mondar

Y si el equipo no le pone pasión
Cuando el político te vuelve a robar
Y si no bailan esta bella canción
Entonces dice que no valen mondar

Ay, qué culpa tengo yo de comer abecedario
Si vengo del español, pero nacido samario
Ay, qué culpa tengo yo, que a mí me quiera la gente
Si con ellos soy feliz, hasta debajo de un puente

Esa palabra es mondar
Esa palabra es mondar

Y qué viva el Carnaval!
Tú sí hablas mondar!

That's Mondar

DJ Marimonda (Carlos Vives)
For all the Marimondas of the world, darling

There are words in the language that have gotten a bad rap, sweetheart
And even though justice acclaims them, they're called vulgarity
This is the case with one of them, the one they mention with the most gusto, my love
For better or for worse, and that word is mondar

(It's mondar, it's mondar) That word is mondar, honey
(It's mondar, it's mondar) And I'm going to explain it to you

Forgive me, my friends, for such thoughts, my dear
If it's already in a document of the Royal Academy
That is diaphanous and absolute, and in the clear there's no dispute, sweetheart
To remove the skin from a fruit, then that's to peel

(That's mondar, that's mondar) Which means to peel, darling
(That's mondar, that's mondar) Which means to peel

And with you, El Elvis Cienaguero, my love

And if luck doesn't want to love you, sweetheart
And if the motorcycle doesn't want to start
And if the neighbor won't stop bothering you, my dear
Keep going and tell him that's mondar

When people surprise you again, darling
Because something good had to happen to you
If it seems to you that there's nothing better, sweetheart
Then you say that's la mondar

Oh, when will love come, my dear
And enlighten the souls of humanity
Oh, when will it be, Velilla prayed
Oh my God, what tongues there are in Barranquilla

From Vía 40 of Marimondas León Caridi, sweetheart
Barrio Abajo, Barranquilla
This mondar is going to fall, it's going to fall, it's going to fall
It's going to fall, it's going to fall, long live Junior your dad

So many things have been said about this confessed word, my love
They say it came from Mon Dieu that the French women exclaimed
And in truth it's from Castile and means to peel
And there's nothing like it for stress and
Discontent than to shout: "that's mondar!", with total conviction, darling

(It's mondar, it's mondar) That word is mondar, honey
(It's mondar, it's mondar) That word is mondar
(It's mondar, it's mondar) That word is mondar, sweetheart
(It's mondar, it's mondar) That word is mondar

And if the one who has no longer wants to understand, my dear
And if the one who kills doesn't stop killing
And if the one who lies doesn't stop lying, darling
Keep going and tell him that's mondar

And if the team doesn't put passion into it, sweetheart
When the politician robs you again
And if they don't dance to this beautiful song, darling
Then you say they're not worth a mondar

Oh, what fault is it of mine to eat the alphabet, my love
If I come from Spanish, but born in Santa Marta
Oh, what fault is it of mine that people love me, sweetheart
If with them I'm happy, even under a bridge

That word is mondar, darling
That word is mondar

And long live Carnival!, sweetheart
You really speak mondar!
