Cerrillana [English translation]

With the short skirt

the long braids I saw you walk,

and right there I tied

my chestnut horse in the patio.

I got down of the horse

I went close to watch.

With the soul in a thread

I saw you dancing, pretty girl.

How to forget you Cerrillos

if I have a woman because of you.

Brown-skinned woman of Cerrillos

with heart and live I'll sing to you

All the carnivals

I'll take you to Cerrillos.

Then the zambas went on

we dance together without resting,

among the fireworks

and streamers of carnival.

The Ash Wednesday

saw us covered in flour.

And in the hunch of my chestnut horse

we went to my ranch.
