Who knows the daily burden
That you have carried?
Who knows of Chico's hardship and suffering?
Who knows the power of shadow
In bluer tropical night?
Who knows the stars' favor and envy?
Play once more time for me, Habanero
For I listen so gladly to your song
Play once more time for me; of the wonder
That never happens for you
Who feels the force of the sun
That creates the thousand wonders
And yet the strength of your back bends?
Who feels the clouds' view
Your skill is already beautiful
And it shows you to your daily goal?
Play once more time for me, Habanero
For I listen so gladly to your song
Play once more time for me; of the wonder
That never happens for you
Who knows if it doesn't appear
If when the heavens cry
When the dust of the earth covers you?
Who knows then if the song
That so pulls the stars
Doesn't wake you up from the dark night?
Play once more time for me, Habanero
For I listen so gladly to your song
Ah ha ha, ha ha ha, Habanero
Habanero, oh oh oh
