Mañana de Mañanita
Los Chalchaleros
Early Morning
(Chacarera)
They call me the black man, because I wanted a brunette
Who wouldn't like to have a good thing?
They call me the blond, because I wanted a blonde
Who wouldn't like to bathe in holy water?
The woman who loves me must be to my liking
You have to come out when I tell you (whistle)
This is what they have told me and they are telling me
That someone else is the owner, ñatita! And I'm bragging
A man from Santiago has died, because his time has come
Make the blessed cross with two carob pods
The love of an old man is like that of a dwarf rooster
He spends the whole year jumping and not reaching
Yesterday I passed by your house: I asked who died
Your sister came out and told me: -Gosh, you're so curious
That's what they've told me they're saying
That someone else is the owner, ñatita and I are showing off
