Cumbia de Los Muertos

Here there is no sadness
only joy exists
it's the dance of the loved ones
of the loved ones from the past
look how my mom dances
dancing with my brother from the past
their spirits come together dancing
full of joy and enjoying

Cumbia, Cumbia (repeat)

Some people can only see
spirits dancing among the people
if they can see my brothers dancing
they will be blessed among the heavens
look how my mom dances
dancing with my brother from the past
their spirits come together dancing
full of joy and enjoying

Cumbia, Cumbia (repeat)

Chali's Rap:
As sure as your heart muscle rests in your chest cavity
we ask god to bless these festivities
yet, this hostility felt between you and me stops
opportunity given to spread unity
2na be rhythmically wiping sadness clear
reggae cumbia mixtures create this atmosphere
people packin cheer simply cuz these songs show depth
giving shouts to these victims of wrongful death
now, soon as we're rid of society's small terrors
the sooner these teenagers don't have to be pallbearers
and carry their pals nearer to graves premature the cure
be mature by keeping your hearts pure
