Angelitos negros [English translation]

Painter, born in my country

with the foreign paint brush,

painter, following the direction

of so many old painters.

Although the Virgin may be white

paint black little angels for me,

cause they go to heaven too

all the good little black angels.

Painter, if you paint whith love,

why do you despise your colour,

when you know, that in heaven

God wants them too.

Painter of saints of the bedroom,

if you have got a soul in the body,

why have you in painting your paintings

forgotten black people.

Everytime, when you paint churches,

you paint beautiful angels,

but never you remembered

to paint a black angel.

Everytime, when you paint churches,

you paint beautiful angels,

but never you remembered

to paint a black angel.
