La Cumbia Del Mole
Lila Downs
The Mole Cumbia
They say that in Oaxaca they drink mezcal with coffee
They say that the herb cures bad faith
I like mole, my Soledad is going to grind me
My dear Soledad is going to cook me a little mole
In the sky of MonteAlbán, at night I dream of you
It's ground with peanuts
The bread is also ground
The dry almond is ground
The chili is also ground with salt
That chocolate is ground
Cinnamon is ground
Pepper and cloves are ground
The grinder moves
It grinds, it grinds, it grinds, it grinds, it grinds, it grinds, it grinds
That chocolate is ground
The bread is also ground
The dry almond is ground
The chili is also ground with salt
That chocolate is ground
Cinnamon is ground
Pepper and cloves are ground
The grinder moves
The grinder moves
The grinder moves
They say that in Oaxaca the chocolate is made with water
They say that at the party the little bull must be burned
For those who make their offering for the passion of Soledad
My dear Soledad is going to cook me a little mole
In the sky of MonteAlbán, at night I dream of you
