Текст и перевод песни La Sonora Santanera feat. Lila Downs - El Yerbero Moderno

El Yerbero Moderno

Se oye el rumor de un pregonar que dice así:
el yerberito llegó, llegó
traigo yerba santa pa' la garganta
traigo keisimon pa' la hinchazón
traigo abrecaminos pa' tu destino
traigo la ruda pa' el que estornuda
tambien traigo albahaca pa' la gente flaca
el apasote para los brotes
el vetivel para el que no ve
y con esa yerba se casa usted
Yerberooo
*hermoso público santanero*
Que traigo yerba santa pa' la garganta
traigo keisimon pa' la hinchazón
traigo abrecaminos pa' tu destino
traigo la ruda pa' el que estornuda
tambien traigo albahaca pa' la gente flaca
el apasote para los brotes
el vetivel para el que no ve
y con esa yerba se casa usted
*hermosa la Sonora Santanera*
Pero yo traigo yerba santa pa' la garganta
y con esa yerba se casa usted
pero yo traigo la ruda pa'l que estornuda
y con esa yerba se casa usted
Pero yo traigo el apasote para los brotes
y con esa yerba se casa usted
*que honor con la Sonora Santanera*
y con esa yerba se casa usted
hay que yo traigo keisimon pa'la hinchazón
y con esa yerba se casa usted
hay que yo traigo abrecaminos pa' tu destino
Y con esa yerba se casa usted.

The Modern Herbalist

I hear a rumor of a peddler who is saying:
the little herbalist has arrived, he has arrived
I bring holy herb for your throat
I bring keisimon for your swelling
I bring path-openers for your destiny
I bring rue for the one who sneezes
also I bring basil for the thin people
the apasote for the sprouts
the vetivel for the one who cannot see
and with that herb you will get married
herbalist
*beautiful santanero audience*
that I bring holy herb for your throat
I bring keisimon for your swelling
I bring path-openers for your destiny
I bring rue for the one who sneezes
also I bring basil for the thin people
the apasote for the sprouts
the vetivel for the one who cannot see
and with that herb you will get married
*beautiful Sonora Santanera*
But I bring holy herb for your throat
and with that herb you will get married
but I bring rue for the one who sneezes
and with that herb you will get married
But I bring apasote for the sprouts
and with that herb you will get married
*what an honor with Sonora Santanera*
and with that herb you will get married
I bring keisimon for your swelling
and with that herb you will get married
I bring path-openers for your destiny
And with that herb you will get married.
