Translation of the song lyrics Sazón - Celia Cruz

Sazón (original)

Todo el mundo me pregunta
¿Celia cuál es el secreto?
de estar unida tanto tiempo
al hombre de tu corazón
Y yo siempre le respondo
que yo tengo mi receta
y aunque sea muy discreta
sé triunfar en el amor
Una taza de cariño
un chin chin de pimentón
revolverlo con ternura
y dar besitos un montón
Una pizca de alegría
un costal de comprensión
con salero y santería
yo conquisté tu corazón
Y todas las noches se infarta…
Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon
le pongo sazón
yo le pongo sazón,
a mi negrito pongo sazón
Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon
le pongo sazón
yo le pongo sazón,
a mi negrito pongo sazón
Lo mantengo entretenido
siempre dándole algo nuevo
me cambio de color de pelo
como cambiar de pantalón
Tacón alto, falda corta
todo por mi cariñito
siempre le digo, mi amorcito,
papi, tú eres el mejor
Yo me siento muy dichosa
de tenerlo tantos años
falta un minuto y ya lo extraño
y le doy gracias al Señor
Y a mi Virgencita santa
yo le prendo tres velitas
te aseguro muchachita
que no me puede ir mejor
Pero todas las noches…
Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon
le pongo sazón
yo le pongo sazón,
a mi negrito pongo sazón
Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon
le pongo sazón
yo le pongo sazón,
a mi negrito pongo sazón
(Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon)
(le pongo sazón)
(yo le pongo sazón)
(a mi negrito pongo sazón)
Le lavo la camisa
le hago su comidita
y por eso mi negrito
siempre está sabrosón, son, son
(Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon)
(le pongo sazón)
con amor y pasión
le doy mi corazón, negro lindo!
Yo le pongo sazón
a mi negrón le pongo sazón
Le doy mi corazón
a mi negrito, sazón, sazón
(Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon)
(le pongo sazón)
él me trae cafecito
luego me da un besito
yo le pongo el azúcar!
pa’que sepa mejor, sazón
(Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon)
(le pongo sazón)
Ay, qué rico son,
son cosquillita' en el corazón
yo le doy sazón
con mucha pasión
a mi negro…
(Yo le pongo sazón, zon, zon)

Sazón (translation)

everyone asks me
Celia what is the secret?
of being together for so long
to the man of your heart
And I always reply
that I have my recipe
and although it is very discreet
I know how to succeed in love
a cup of love
a chin chin of paprika
stir it tenderly
and give lots of kisses
a pinch of joy
a sack of understanding
with salt shaker and santeria
I conquered your heart
And every night she has a heart attack...
I put seasoning on it, zon, zon
I put seasoning on it
I put seasoning on it,
I put seasoning on my black
I put seasoning on it, zon, zon
I put seasoning on it
I put seasoning on it,
I put seasoning on my black
I keep it entertained
always giving you something new
I change my hair color
how to change pants
High heel, short skirt
all for my darling
I always tell him, my sweetheart,
daddy you are the best
I feel very happy
of having it for so many years
a minute to go and I already miss him
and I thank the Lord
And to my holy Virgin
I light three candles
I assure you girl
that I can't do better
But every night...
I put seasoning on it, zon, zon
I put seasoning on it
I put seasoning on it,
I put seasoning on my black
I put seasoning on it, zon, zon
I put seasoning on it
I put seasoning on it,
I put seasoning on my black
(I put seasoning on it, zon, zon)
(I put seasoning on it)
(I add seasoning)
(I put seasoning on my little black)
I wash his shirt
I make his little food
and that's why my black
it's always tasty, they are, they are
(I put seasoning on it, zon, zon)
(I put seasoning on it)
with love and passion
I give you my heart, pretty black!
I put seasoning on it
I put seasoning on my nigger
I give my heart
to my black, seasoning, seasoning
(I put seasoning on it, zon, zon)
(I put seasoning on it)
he brings me coffee
then he gives me a kiss
I put the sugar!
so that it tastes better, seasoning
(I put seasoning on it, zon, zon)
(I put seasoning on it)
Oh, how rich they are,
they are ticklish' in the heart
I give it seasoning
with a lot of passion
to my black…
(I put seasoning on it, zon, zon)
