La Guacherna

Lanterns of stars, spinning through the night
The breeze is lavish, with cumbia sounds
Madness of colors, the streets of Curramba
Party drums, here comes the Guacherna

Here comes the tremendous Guacherna to enjoy
Here comes the Guacherna envelops me in its rhythm
The queens of the neighborhoods, the queen of the carnival
Parades and backpacks and three-pointed sandals
I'm going to Barranquilla
With the Guacherna

Jú
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival

Let the people get excited, I want to see them dance
Look for some aguardiente, I'm going to party
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
I want to be in Barranquilla, visit my friends

Greet Esther Forero, the queen of this song
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
Eeeee oh the Guacherna, oh the Guacherna

Yes, if you want to know what Guacherna is, it's a carnival party
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
And I dance around here, and I dance around there

Oh the Guacherna, the Guacherna gentlemen what a song
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Congos, the Monitos, the dance of the Little Bull

Pollera and papallera make me remember
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
Oooohh drums and Guacherna so many beloved things
So many things gone from the old carnival

The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
Mmmhhh I remember my grandfather and his way of dancing
The burreros salons, popular palace

The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
The Guacherna, the Guacherna, the Guacherna in carnival
And we're going to the Guacherna
