Es un canto mañanero
A la orillita del rio.
Que te va diciendo negra
Tapame que tengo frio.
Que te va diciendo negra
Vamonos a enamorar.
Ayayay, esta noche yo me voy
Ayayay, a pasearme entre las dunas
Ayayay, prestame negra tus ojos
Porque se esconde la luna.
Ayayay, yo no se lo que me pasa
Ayayay, cuando estoy cerca del mar.
Ayayay, lo que me pide mi negra
No se lo puedo negar
(Venezuelan Joropo)
Translation:
It is a morning song
At the banks of the river
Which is telling you, dear lady,
Cover me, for I’m feeling cold.
Which is telling you, dear lady,
Let’s love each other.
Oh, yes, tonight I will
Oh, yes, I will wander among the dunes
Oh, yes, lend me, dear lady, your eyes
Because the moon is hidden.
Oh, yes, I don’t know what gets me
Oh, yes, when I’m close to the sea.
Oh, yes, whatever my lady asks me to,
I can’t withhold
