about

A love song with reggae mixed with the Cuban son. The rhythm is reggae, but the bongo and the tres come in with a Latin flavor. The theme is “the magic”, the witchcraft of love. So sweet and so sour.
____

Canción de amor con reggae mezclado con el son cubano. El ritmo es reggae, pero el bongo y el tres intervienen con su sabor latino, el argumento es “el embrujo”, la brujería del amor. Tan dulce y tan “agria”.
____

C’est une chanson d’amour reggae mixée avec le son cubain. Le rythme est reggae, dans lequel le “bongo” et le “tres” interviennent avec leurs saveurs latines, le thème traduit “le maléfice”, la sorcellerie de l’amour. Si douce et si aigre.

lyrics

Coro
Qué será, que será, que me hace tan feliz
Y que al mismo tiempo me hace sentir tan frágil
Una sonrisa tuya y se alegra mi vida
Eso es como magia es como brujería

Oye mami tu que me has hecho
No puedo caminar derecho
De puerta en puerta como un borracho
Todos los caminos me regresan a tu lecho
Voy como un zombi- ooo
En las calles de mi barrio
Todo lo veo en oro y en amarillo
Siento que hay algo que tiene que ver
Con la diosa del río
Dime en que lío estoy metido
Yo no sé que hacer mami estoy perdido
Sabe bien que yo la quiero y se aprovecha
Y en el corazón yo tengo clavada su flecha

Coro

Papá tu me dijiste no preste atención
Solo le hice caso a mi pobre corazón
Esa misma noche fue que la conocí
Y al pasar el río sentí que me perdí

Bajo la luna de miel
Sus besos sobre mi piel
Sus caricias atrevidas
Me llenaron de ternura
Ay mamá que tortura

Perdí mi resguardo y perdí la cabeza
Ahora me siento prisionero de su belleza
Ahora en los pasillos de su fortaleza
Su amor es un castillo y yo soy la presa
Quilombo, soy el esclavo de sus encantos
Quilombo, soy el cautivo de sus hechizos
Soy sensible y me mata con sus llantos
Soy el siervo que cumple sus deseos

Coro

No no no no lo puedo controlar
Tu me vuelve loco solo con tu caminar
Esa forma de andar que pareces bailar
Ay mamacita estoy ciego de amar
Rigidiguiguiding Riguidiguididong
Ese es el ritmo que hace mi corazón
Cuando pasas a mi lado nace una canción
Corazón enamorados no tiene salvación
______

Translation:

Chorus:
What will be, will be, which makes me so happy
And at the same time makes me feel so fragile
One smile from you and it lights up my life
It’s like magic, it’s like witchcraft

Hey baby, what have you done to me
I can’t walk straight
I stumble door to door like a drunk
All roads bring me back to your bed
I’m like a zombie
On the streets of my neighborhood
I see everything in gold and yellow
I feel it has something to do
With the river goddess
Tell me what have I gotten myself into
I do not know what to do, woman, I’m lost
She knows that I love her and takes advantage
And I have her arrow stuck in my heart

Chorus

Papa, you told me not to pay her any attention
I only listened to my poor heart
That same night when I met her
And crossing the river I lost my way
Under the full moon
Her kisses on my skin
Her clandestine caresses
Filled me with tenderness
Ay, baby, what torture

I let down my guard and lost my head
Now I feel like a prisoner to her beauty
Now in the passageways of her fortress
Her love is a castle and I am the imprisoned
Quilombo, I am a slave to her charms
Quilombo, I am captured by her allure
I am sensitive and she kills me with her tears
I am the servant that does everything she wishes

Chorus

No, no, no, no, I can’t control it
You make me crazy just with the way you walk
This way of walking that looks like dancing
Ay, baby, I’m blind with love
Rigidiguiguiding Riguidiguididong
This is the rhythm that my heart makes
When you pass by my side a song is born
Hearts in love have no salvation
