Takiti Taki

Unknown

Ay que lee ay que lea
One single palm
Alone and singing

Ay que lee
If San Juan knew
When his day was
San Juan would come down
From heaven to earth

Ay que lee ay que lea
Ae ae ay que lea
One single palm
Alone in solitude

Ay que lee...
One single palm
Alone in solitude
The wind brings it
And carries it away again

Ay que lee...
Ay Lola ay Lola

Aya tea huan bimbe...
I greet you tonight, people
To ladies and gentlemen
We come to you to sing
With all the sanjuaneros3
Ay Lola ay Lola

Aya tea...
Of course I'm going to like it
In the Jordan river
What marvels have been seen
Christ baptized San Juan
And San Juan baptized Christ
Ay Lola ay Lola
Ay, we're gonna change the language

Taki ti taki palm fruit
Taki ti taki no more
Here they don't bust open the palm fruit
The way they do it over there
Taki ti taki...

That's what I like
How am I not gonna like it
When you play the drum
The way you know how
Taki ti taki...

Swing your hips
Like you know how to do
A little step forward
And a little step back
Taki ti taki

Ay get up, aunt
Get up, my beloved aunt
Ae here comes the calumba...

I'm coming by here people
Before the rooster crows
I carried a cross
Of very heavy wood
Lumba lumba lumba lumba
Now play the calumbada
In the bloody calvary
My cousin was nailed up
Ay novillo alabaa
It's gonna take you down
