Ha llegado el carnaval
Carnival has arrived
El momento de olvidar
The time to forget
Cuando escucho los tambores
When I listen to the drums
De mi tierra tropical
From my tropical land
Veo que es la jardinera
I see it's the planter
Que viene regando flores
Who comes watering flowers
Aunque mi papi no quiera
Even if my daddy doesn't want to
Con ella voy a arrollar
With her I'm going to run over
Ay, si quieres gozar, caramba, y olvidar las penas
Oh, if you want to enjoy, gosh, and forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti, óyelo, lirios y azucenas
I bring for you, hear it, lilies and lilies
Si quieres gozar, y olvidar las penas
If you want to enjoy, and forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti, lirios y azucenas
I bring for you, lilies and lilies
Si quieres gozar
If you want to enjoy
Y olvidar las penas
And forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti
I bring for you
Lirios y azucenas
Lilies and lilies
Si quieres gozar
If you want to enjoy
Y olvidar las penas
And forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti
I bring for you
Lirios y azucenas
Lilies and lilies
Ay, con un jardinero, caramba, yo me puse a hablar
Oh, with a gardener, gosh, I started talking.
Llego La Sonora, óyelo, ya empezó a tocar
La Sonora arrived, hear it, already started playing
Si quieres gozar
If you want to enjoy
Y olvidar las penas
And forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti
I bring for you
Lirios y azucenas
Lilies and lilies
Si quieres gozar
If you want to enjoy
Y olvidar las penas
And forget the sorrows
Traigo para ti
I bring for you
Lirios y azucenas
Lilies and lilies
