Translation of the song lyrics Dormite - Marta Gomez

Dormite (original)

Uuuu… Hace un ratote que canto y no logro adormecerte
Porque grandotes tenés esos ojos y tarda pa' que se cierren
Dormite por Dios dormite y hacele caso a tu mama
Dormite por Dios dormite y hacele caso a tu mama
Mi tía ya me contó que siendo vos tan chiquito
En un pris pras te soltaste la mano para ir gateando hasta el río
Que destapaste un canasto ay oi oe
Y juntaste con la ropa todo el arroz, el pescao y el revuerto
Que ella le iba a echa' a la sopa
Dormite, por Dios dormite hacele caso a tu mama
Dormite por Dios dormite, hacele caso a tu mama
Yo no voy a llamar al coco ni al diablo pa' que te asuste
Lo que quiero es que sonrías mi negrito lindo y tus pestañas se junten
Claro que pa' que se junten, oíme pues
Falta como medio rato
Dormite por Dios dormite, mañana tengo trabajo
Dormite por Dios dormite, mañana tengo trabajo
De ir a la mina, cortar leña, sembrar, recoger racimo'
Pescar y luego de ir a vende' al mercado, caramba
Yo estoy cansada mi niño
Eh!
Al fin cerraste los ojos ahora dormí hasta mañana
Yo sé que vos me entendiste vos sos un rey pa' tu mama
Yo se que vos me entendiste, vos sos un rey pa' tu mama
Pa tu mama sos un rey vos sos mi rey
Vos sos un rey pa' tu mama
Yo sé que vos a yo me entendiste
Vos sos un rey pa' tu mama…
Yo sé que vos a yo me entendiste
Vos sos un rey pa' tu mama
Mmmmm

Dormite (translation)

Uuuu… I've been singing for a while and I can't put you to sleep
Because you big ones have those eyes and it takes time for them to close
Sleep for God sleep and listen to your mom
Sleep for God sleep and listen to your mom
My aunt already told me that being so small
In a pris pras you let go of your hand to crawl to the river
That you uncovered a basket oh oi oe
And you put together with the clothes all the rice, the fish and the scrambled eggs
That she was going to throw into the soup
Sleep, for God's sake, listen to your mom
Sleep for God sleep, listen to your mom
I'm not going to call the coconut or the devil to scare you
What I want is for you to smile, my pretty black boy, and your eyelashes to meet
Of course, for them to get together, listen to me
It's like half a minute
Sleep for God sleep, tomorrow I have work
Sleep for God sleep, tomorrow I have work
To go to the mine, cut firewood, sow, collect grapes'
Fish and then go to the market to sell, gosh
I'm tired my boy
Hey!
At last you closed your eyes now I slept until tomorrow
I know that you understood me, you are a king for your mom
I know that you understood me, you are a king for your mom
For your mom you are a king you are my king
You are a king for your mom
I know that you understood me
You are a king for your mom…
I know that you understood me
You are a king for your mom
mmmmm
