Mi Nuevo Empedrao
Gaita Nuestra
My New Stoned
You went out of tradition
To that neighborhood of the past
Handsome famous gaitero
Romantic and dreamer
And who can stand you stoned
Polished like a flower
Over there on the steps
Should be filled
And put a square there
To make it shine
There is the little virgin
Beloved Saint Lucia
So divine and so blessed
For her parishioners
Over there in the lowlands
They should put
A very nice spa
For tourism and pleasure
And along its immense riverbank
A dreamy walk
With cabins and palm trees
All around
Over there on the four corners
The castle and Ezequiel
The little breeze fountain
Pleasant gatherings of yesteryear
It would be of great beauty
An ideal avenue
And so the new Venice
Would be a shopping center
This stoned neighborhood of mine
From today's Maracaibo
As time has passed
It also wants to be better
It's not that it feels envious
Because it's quite simple
But it wants to be beautiful
Like Saladillo will be
