Tamborero(original) |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| El padre del padre del tamborero |
| Le está contando a su nieto la historia de aquel tambor |
| Como le contó a su padre su abuelo |
| Que dicen le había contado a él, su hermano mayor |
| La historia que es larga y a veces es triste |
| Resiste si se descarga en cada generación |
| La historia que no se cuenta en palabras |
| Tampoco voy a contarla yo en esta canción |
| Para eso escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| La historia que un día el tamborero |
| Tocando el tambor le cuenta también a su hijo mayor |
| La historia en vez de unos y ceros |
| Se cuenta en madera y cuero tensado por el calor |
| Y así va pasando de boca en boca |
| De mano en mano que toca de corazón en corazón |
| Historia que suena es la del candombe |
| Y si se preguntan dónde está viva la tradición |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| Escuchen tocar al tamborero |
| Luna llena de cuero es la lonja de su tambor |
| (translation) |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| The father of the drummer's father |
| He is telling his grandson the story of that drum |
| As he told his father about him his grandfather |
| What do they say she had told him, her older brother |
| The story that is long and sometimes sad |
| Resists if downloaded in each generation |
| The story that is not told in words |
| I'm not going to tell it in this song either |
| For that, listen to the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| The story that one day the drummer |
| Playing the drum, he also tells his eldest son |
| History instead of ones and zeros |
| It comes in wood and heat-stretched leather |
| And so it goes from mouth to mouth |
| From hand to hand that touches from heart to heart |
| History that sounds is that of candombe |
| And if you wonder where the tradition is alive |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
| Hear the drummer play |
| Moon full of leather is the market of his drum |
