Plantación Adentro (part. Willie Colon)

Shadows are the people
La la la la la la la
Shadows are the people
La la la la la la la
Inside the plantation, friend
Is where the truth is known
Is where the truth is learned

Within the foliage
And the thickness
Where every journey
Carries bitterness
Is where it's known, friend
Is where the truth is learned

Camilo Manrique died
From the blows given by the overseer
And was buried without tears, ha!
Just a wooden cross and nothing more

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Inside the plantation, friend
Shadows are the people and nothing more

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
The Indian Camilo died
From the sticks given by the overseer

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
And the on-duty doctor said
Death by natural causes

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Of course, if after a beating with sticks
Dying is normal

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Land jungle sun and wind
Indian and overseer's stick

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Hey, Camilo Manrique died
And they buried him without tears

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
And in his sad monument
Just a wooden cross and nothing more

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Pick up the coffee and go there
If the overseer doesn't hit you

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Green jungle jungle swallows
Jungle never says anything

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
Inside the plantation, friend
Shadows are the people and nothing more

Camilo Manrique died
Inside the plantation, friend
