Gracias mi folclore
Iván Villazón
Thanks to My Folklore
The day Poncho Zuleta sings poorly
and Emiliano no longer plays vallenato
that day I will stop being in your arms
and I will stop loving you.
The day 'DIOMEDES' sings without feeling
and Juancho Rois' notes are not heard
that day be sure I will leave
you won't see me around here
When all that happens
then, my queen, I will forget you
how lucky we are because if that's the case,
then our story will not have an end
oh because if that's the case
then our story will not have an end
CHORUS: That's why I'm happy, I have you with me
that's why I dream awake with you.
And you will see how a heart beats
intoxicated with love wanting someone like you
and you will see how a heart beats
of a man in love
wanting someone like you.
CHORUS: That's why I'm happy, I have you with me
that's why I dream awake with you.
When Jorge Oñate sings with fear
and Pochita no longer plays a good merengue
then you can tell everyone
not to undervalue your love.
When there are no more vallenato festivals
and Pollo Izra doesn't come up with anything new
when Zabaleta no longer captivates the town
my hands will not be yours.
When all that happens, the dreams between you and me will end
the happiest man that day will be me
and I am happy because that day will not come
Thanks to My Folklore that gives me the reason to tell you that I love you more.
That's why I'm happy
I have you with me
that's why I dream awake with you
and who doesn't sing crazy with emotion
and shouts everywhere there is still happiness,
and who doesn't sing crazy with emotion
and shouts everywhere there is still happiness.
CHORUS: That's why I'm happy
I have you with me,
that's why I dream
awake with you (REPEAT).
That's why I'm happy, I have you with me.
