Lyrics of Duerme Negrito - Olivia Ruiz, Didier Blanc, Toàn

Duerme Negrito (original)

Duerme, duerme negrito
que tu mama esta en el campo, negrito
Duerme, duerme mobila
que tu mama esta en el campo, mobila
Te va a traer codornizes para ti Te va a traer rica fruta para ti Te va a traer carne de cerdo para ti Te va a traer muchas cosas para ti Y si el negro no se duerme
viene el diablo blanco
Y ¡zaz!
le come la patita
chicapumba, chicapumba, apumba chicapum
Duerme, duerme negrito
que tu mama esta en el campo, negrito
Trabajando
trabajando duramente
Trabajando si trabajando y va de luto
Trabajando si trabajando y no le pagan
Trabajando si trabajando y va tosiendo
Trabajando si pa' el negrito chiquitito
pa' el negrito si Trabajando si Trabajando si Duerme, duerme negrito
que tu mama esta en el campo, negrito

(translation)

sleep, sleep black
that your mom is in the field, black
Sleep, sleep mobile
that your mom is in the field, mobila
He's going to bring you quails He's going to bring you rich fruit He's going to bring you pork He's going to bring you many things And if the black man doesn't fall asleep
the white devil is coming
And wow!
he eats his leg
chicapumba, chicapumba, apumba chicapum
sleep, sleep black
that your mom is in the field, black
Working
working hard
Working yes working and going in mourning
Working yes working and not paid
Working yes working and coughing
Working if for the little black boy
for the little black man yes Working yes Working yes Sleep, sleep little black
that your mom is in the field, black
