La Sandunga

The Sandunga
Oh sandunga, sandunga mama for God
Sandunga don't be ungrateful, mama of my heart
Oh sandunga, sandunga mama for God
Sandunga don't be ungrateful, mama of my heart
Last night I went to your house
I knocked three times on the padlock
You're not good for love
You have a heavy sleep
Oh sandunga, sandunga mama for God
Sandunga don't be ungrateful, mama of my heart
You offered to accompany me
From the church to my hut
But since you didn't arrive
I had to come alone
Oh sandunga, sandunga mama for God
Sandunga don't be ungrateful, mama of my heart
On the banks of the Papaloapan
I was bathing yesterday
You passed by the banks
And didn't want to see me
Oh sandunga, sandunga mama for God
Sandunga don't be ungrateful, mama of my heart
