Dime Si Llegue A Tiempo Lyrics in English Celia Cruz , Celia & Johnny
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dime Si Llegue A Tiempo by Celia Cruz from Spanish to English.
Dime si llegué a tiempo pa' la rumba
Tell me if I arrived on time for the party
Pues traigo aquí un cantar para el bembé
Because I've brought a song for the bembé
Y también traigo un canto de alegría
And I've also brought a song of joy
Pa' que se inspire todo aquel que no lo esté
So that everyone who isn't feeling inspired will be inspired
Que suene el Quinto, Clave, Timbal con la Tumbadora
Let the Quinto, Clave, Timbales with the Congas play
Que tengo ganas de cantar y echar un pie
Because I feel like singing and dancing
Tan solo pido que cuando yo cante bailen
I only ask that when I sing you dance
Y que bailen todos con la punta al pie ay
And that everyone dances with their toes on
Ay, tu cantarás, tu bailarás
Oh, you will sing, you will dance
Ay, baila con la punta al pie
Oh, dance with your toes on
Este ritmo causa risa, te lo cantaré nene
This rhythm makes you laugh, I'll sing it to you, baby
Ay, ve y dile a Celia, María que baile
Oh, go and tell Celia, María to dance
Con la punta al pie
On her tiptoes
Ay, baila con el cacañare
Oh, dance with the cacañare
Baila con la punta al pie
