Pitan - Pitan

Very close to your docks
where Soledad lives,
very early a man
gets up to work,
he drinks light coffee
so he can make it,
he kisses the old lady,
he crosses himself at the altar.

And he goes and goes,
and he goes fishing,
with his fishing rod
he dresses in immensity.

And Sunday dawned,
the city wakes up,
he's a fortunate man,
who goes to church to pray,
he gives thanks for what has been
also for what will be
and he asks for his team
that will play in the afternoon.

And he goes and goes
he goes to sing
and in blue and red
his dream is painted again.
And he goes and goes
and he goes to shout
the son of Soledad
plays Pescaíto.

He sings in the stadium
if your team is winning
and if it's losing,
better keep singing.

The siren sounds,
the banana cyclone blows,
my Unión Magdalena
you know how much I love you.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
drummers play.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
the game is starting.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
the drums resound.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
my town is happy.

The guajira bar
there in the general shade,
with the cienagueros
playing the pitán - pitán.

Pitán, pitán, pitán
drummers play.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
accompanying the game.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
sung by the bagpipers.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
my town is happy.

Gorrero, gorrero
take off your hat.
Gorrero, gorrero
take off your hat.
If you don't take it off
I'll throw it on the ground.
If you don't take it off
I'll throw it on the ground.

I bring you nice things,
shrimp from the bar,
I bring fresh sierra
with mullet and mojarra.
I have red snapper,
fish from this morning,
if you don't buy it from me,
let your sister buy it.

Pitán, pitán, pitán
last night I had a dream.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
we were little.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
and the grandparents were there.
Pitán, pitán, pitán
my town was happy.

Pitán, pitán, pitán (repeat)
