Текст и перевод песни Simón Díaz feat. Alberto Slezinger - El Alcaravan

El Alcaravan

El perico en el conuco,
La totuma en el corral
Y hasta el gallo carraspea
Cuando pasa un animal.
Allá en mi pueblo
Cuando pasa un alcaraván,
Se asustan las muchachas
Por el beso del morichal.
El perro de la casa
Se levanta y sale pa'llá,
Pa'llá, pa' ibera
Porque no le gusta pelear.
Que fuiste tú, que si yo,
Que no, que si tú,
Te vieron que llevabas
Cafecito al morichal,
Y que Pedro en los maizales
Tus espigas reventaba.
Y esa noche la luna
Se puso bonita, clarita,
Que hasta Pedro se asusta
Si pasa algún alcaraván.

The Ani

The parrot in the field,
The gourd in the barnyard,
And even the rooster clears his throat
When an animal passes by.
Back in my town
When an Ani flies by,
The young ladies get frightened
By the kiss of the palm swamp.
The dog in the house
Gets up and heads out there,
There, to the palm forest
Because it doesn't like to fight.
That it was you, then me,
That no, it was you,
They saw you bringing
Coffee to the palm swamp,
And that Pedro was in the corn fields,
Breaking your ears of corn.
And that night the moon
Was beautiful, shining brightly,
So much that even Pedro gets scared
If an Ani flies by.
