Carbonerito [English translation]

i married an enchanting black woman

a black woman sweet as honey

and since i am black as gum

our offspring came black as well

a little black child measuring twenty and a half

and weighting nine something, almost ten

the joy was so great that i felt at seeing

that boy, in my arms i took and sung to him:

where are you going, little charcoal,

where are you going to make coal?

to the villa la, to the villa la, to the villa of the lord.*

that black woman i love

with all my heart.

she's the mother of my children

and the owner of my love.

she has a fat mouth/lips

and i have a big nose

and like this ugly as we are

we are deeply in love.

she has given me six little children

and i want two more

to complete the eight

and sing them the song, that goes:

where are you going, little charcoal,

where are you going to make coal?

to the villa la, to the villa la,

to the villa of the lord.

to the villa la, to the villa la,

to the villa to the villa of the lord,

i married an enchanting black woman

a fine and sweet black woman

a black woman of salon

to the villa, la, to the villa la

to the villa to the villa of the lord, of the lord

she washes and irons for me, she cooks me my meals

that is why i sing: oh, what a woman i have!

to the villa, la, to the villa la

to the villa to the villa of the lord, of the lord

the dance/music spree is set

the people keep coming

i am in need of firewood

more charcoal for the bonfire, as it is running out.

to the villa, to the villa, to the villa to the villa of the lord.

to the villa, to the villa, to the villa to the villa of the lord.
