Azúcar Negra
Celia Cruz
Black Sugar
I'm sweet like molasses
Joyful like the drum
I carry the rhythmic tumbao'
I carry the rhythmic tumbao'
From Africa in the heart
Daughter of a rich island
Slave to a smile
I am sugar cane and carnival
Conga, heart, and land
My blood is black sugar
It's love and music
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy (Wow!)
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
That I'm in the rain, in the grass
I'm in the cloud and the stone
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
I'm sweet like molasses
Joyful like the drum
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
And when it's time to party
In the guaracha I am the queen
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
I am the sugar cane and coffee
Guarapo of guaguancó
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
I light up, I have my skin marked
With the rumba and the bongo, and the bongo
Black sugar sugar
(Black sugar)
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
I am the fire
Fire, my fire, the fire
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
How I like it and how it makes me happy
(Black sugar)
Black sugar sugar
Oh, how much I like it and it makes me happy
Black sugar sugar
