A la Mina No Voy(original) |
| El blanco vive en su casa |
| De madera con balcón |
| El negro en rancho de paja |
| En un solo paredón |
| Y aunque mi amo me mate |
| A la mina no voy |
| Yo no quiero morirme |
| En un socavón |
| Don Pedro es tu amo |
| Él te compró |
| Se compran las cosas |
| A los hombres no |
| En la mina brilla el oro |
| Al fondo del socavón |
| El blanco se lleva todo |
| Y al negro deja el dolor |
| Cuándo vuelvo de la mina |
| Cansado del carretón |
| Encuentro a mi negra triste |
| Abandonada de Dios |
| Y a mis negritos con hambre |
| ¿por qué esto, pregunto yo? |
| (translation) |
| The white man lives in his house |
| wooden with balcony |
| The black in straw ranch |
| In a single wall |
| And even if my master kills me |
| I'm not going to the mine |
| I don't want to die |
| in a sinkhole |
| Don Pedro is your master |
| he bought you |
| things are bought |
| not men |
| Gold shines in the mine |
| At the bottom of the sinkhole |
| white takes all |
| And the black leaves the pain |
| when i come back from mine |
| Tired of the cart |
| I find my black sad |
| forsaken of god |
| And my hungry blacks |
| why this, I ask? |
