Translation of the song lyrics Oiga, Mire, Vea - Alberto Barros

Oiga, Mire, Vea (original)

Si huele a caña
Tabaco y brevas
Usted esta en cali
Ay mire, vea!
Si las mujeres son
Lindas y hermosas
Aqui no hay fea
Para que vea
Mi Cali se esta arreglando
Para su fiesta mas popular
Con caña, dulce el melao
Hierbe en la paila hasta amanecer
Habra corrida de toros
Y por la noche fiesta y rumba
En Cali, mira
Se sabe gozar (bis)
De dia su zona ardiente
Hace que mi Cali se caliente
De noche sus callecitas
Con farolitos se ven bonitas
Afinen bien las orquestas
Que este año si vamos a reventar
La rumba empezo en la sexta
Banban Juanchito esta remata
Con salsa de ahi
Con mucho mani (bis)
Oiga, mire, vea
Vengase a Cali para que vea!
Oiga, mire, vea
Goze la feria para que vea!
Si usted va llegando
Vayase entonando
Que de baile en baile
Se va acomodando
De dia en la plaza
Corrida de toros
De noche que al Cesar
Sin no en plastimodo
Oiga, mire, vea
Vengase a Cali para que vea!
Si va usted Juanchito
La pasa bonito
Si va al barrio obrero
Se vuelve rumbero
Si se me acalora
No mire la hora
Tomese un raspado
Y cuento acabado!
Oiga, mire, vea
Goze la feria para que vea!
Aqui no hay problema
Aqui no hay pelea
Mi gente de Cali
Disfruta y rumbea
Pida una botella
Pida una caneca
Que en mi Cali bella
La gente respeta
Oiga, mire, vea
Vengase a Cali para que vea!
Vaya despacito
Si ya va prendido
Si va manejando
Se mete en un lio
Quedese quietico
Ya esta amanecido
Y despues del cance
Vayase pal pance
Oiga, mire, vea
Vengase a Cali para que vea!
Oiga, mire, vea
Goze la feria para que vea!
(bis)
Que que que que que?
Querian que te cantara
Cali TE CANTA Y te cantare!
Despues de que pasa la feria
La rumba sigue como es
Asi queda demostrado
Y aqui queda comprobado
Que las mujeres de Cali
Tienen sabrosura…
Salsa!
Porque mueven la cintura
Las mujeres de Cali
Tienen sabrosura
Salsa!
Porque mueven la cintura…

(translation)

If it smells like cane
Tobacco and figs
you are in cali
Oh look, see!
If women are
cute and beautiful
There is no ugly here
for you to see
My Cali is getting ready
For your most popular party
With cane, sweet melao
Herb in the pan until dawn
There will be a bullfight
And at night party and rumba
In Cali, look
You know how to enjoy (bis)
By day its burning zone
Makes my Cali hot
At night its little streets
With lanterns they look pretty
Tune the orchestras well
That this year we are going to burst
The rumba began in the sixth
Banban Juanchito is finishing
with ahi sauce
With a lot of peanuts (bis)
Hey, look, see
Come to Cali to see!
Hey, look, see
Enjoy the fair for you to see!
If you are arriving
go singing
That from dance to dance
is getting comfortable
By day in the square
Bullfight
At night that when Cesar
Sin not in plastimodo
Hey, look, see
Come to Cali to see!
If you go Juanchito
have a nice time
If you go to the working-class neighborhood
he becomes a rumba
If I get hot
don't look at the time
take a scrape
And finished story!
Hey, look, see
Enjoy the fair for you to see!
here there is no problem
there is no fight here
My people from Cali
Enjoy and party
order a bottle
Ask for a can
That in my beautiful Cali
people respect
Hey, look, see
Come to Cali to see!
go slowly
If it's already on
If you are driving
He gets into a mess
stand still
It's already dawn
And after the cancer
go pal pance
Hey, look, see
Come to Cali to see!
Hey, look, see
Enjoy the fair for you to see!
(Bis)
What what what what what?
They wanted me to sing to you
Cali sings to you and I will sing to you!
After the fair passes
The rumba continues as it is
So it is proven
And here it is verified
That the women of Cali
They have flavor…
Dip!
because they move the waist
The women of Cali
They have flavor
Dip!
Because they move their waist...
