Zamba de Carnaval
Mercedes Sosa
Carnival Zamba
I come from the shadows
Mountain bull
To see if I can shake off my blues
Dancing through Carnival
I’m short on cash
Courage, and some
A little push from the devil
To win your heart
Carnival nights
The chicha and basil crying in the wine
The tied-up horses gallop back to the moon
And I’m missing a push from the devil
Come on, let’s dance the zamba
Just the two of us
I want to trick your soul
With my magic spell
Your little handkerchief in the air
Seeks comfort
My heart follows it
From flight to flight
