La Pala (original)La Pala (translation)
Me entregaron una pala they handed me a shovel
Que la ciudara pa' mí That the city pa' me
Que nunca la abandonara that he would never abandon her
Pa' que la tierra regara So that the earth watered
Despacito, despacito Slowly, slowly
Y cuando más mocetón And when more youthful
Me entregaron un arao they gave me a guinea fowl
Que lo empujara con fuerza That she push him hard
Pa' que gritara la tierra So that the earth would scream
Despacito, despacito Slowly, slowly
Llévalos por los caminos Take them on the roads
Como llevas tu destino how do you carry your destiny
El trabajo hay que cuidar Work must be taken care of
Ellos te darán el pan They will give you the bread
Llévalos por los caminos Take them on the roads
Enyugao por los años enyugao by the years
Mi cuero ya no da más My leather no longer gives more
Todo lo trabajao I work everything
Toíto me lo han quitao Toíto they took it from me
Despacito, despacito Slowly, slowly
Malaya la vida oscura Malaya the dark life
Que he tenío que llevar What have I had to bring
Pero he visto que la noche But I have seen that night
Ha comenzado a aclarar has started to lighten
Despacito, despacito Slowly, slowly
Sigue abriendo los caminos keep opening the way
El surco de tu destino The groove of your destiny
La alegría de sembrar The joy of sowing
No te la pueden quitar They can't take it away from you
La alegría de sembrar The joy of sowing
Es tuya, de nadie másIt's yours, no one else's
