Pan Para Yolanda Lyrics in English Melendi , Aymee Nuviola
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pan Para Yolanda by Melendi from Spanish to English.
Nací en el margen izquierdo
I was born on the left bank
Al otro lado del río
Across the river
Cauto siempre en mis palabras
Always cautious in my words
Lo aprendí bien desde crío
I learned it well since I was a child
La protesta como un perro
Protest like a dog
Queda de puertas pa' dentro
There are doors inside
Siempre que se nos escapa
Whenever it escapes us
Alguien termina mordiendo
Someone ends up biting
Y una vez cada tanto
And once in a while
Unas damas de blanco
Some ladies in white
Se cuelan en el tablero
They sneak onto the board
De este ajedrez
of this chess
Con flores y sonajeros
With flowers and rattles
Para borrar con su llanto
To erase with your crying
Con su llanto
with your crying
El primer impar de enero
The first odd number of January
Y qué le voy a hacer
And what am I going to do?
Si en el fondo te amo
If deep down I love you
Porque eres la mujer
Because you are the woman
Más bella aunque tengas amo
More beautiful even if you have a love
Tu pelo, palma real
Your hair, royal palm
Y las líneas de tus manos me siguen llevando al mar
And the lines of your hands continue to take me to the sea
Diez de cal y una de arena
Ten of lime and one of sand
Y aun así quiero soñar
And still I want to dream
Con que quiten la bandera roja y me pueda bañar
If they remove the red flag and I can bathe
En tu mar
in your sea
Ahí en tu mar
There in your sea
Borracho de libertad
Drunk with freedom
Y en la Radio Milanés se echa de menos
And on Milanese Radio it is missed
Ya no hay pan para Yolanda
There is no more bread for Yolanda
Pues su régimen demanda sacrificios
Well, her regime demands sacrifices
Poco pan, mucho ejercicio
Little bread, lots of exercise
Toca buscar otra mesa
It's time to find another table
En la ciudad que progresa
In the city that progresses
Y qué le voy a hacer
And what am I going to do?
Si en el fondo te amo
If deep down I love you
Porque eres la mujer
Because you are the woman
Más bella aunque tengas amo
More beautiful even if you have a love
Tu pelo palma real
Your real palm hair
Y las líneas de tus manos me siguen llevando al mar
And the lines of your hands continue to take me to the sea
Diez de cal y una de arena
Ten of lime and one of sand
Y aun así quiero soñar
And still I want to dream
Con que quiten la bandera roja y me pueda bañar
If they remove the red flag and I can bathe
En tu mar
in your sea
En tu mar, en tu mar
In your sea, in your sea
Borracho de libertad
Drunk with freedom
Diez de cal y una de arena
Ten of lime and one of sand
No te da pena
You don't feel sorry
Tú no me dejas soñar
You don't let me dream
Sácate una cristal, párate de la silla
Take a glass, get up from the chair
Que vamos a brindar de orilla a orilla
What are we going to offer from shore to shore?
Quítame la bandera roja y dame la blanca
Take away the red flag and give me the white one
De la esperanza papá
Of hope dad
Desde Pinar a Bayamón bailar este son cubano
From Pinar to Bayamón dance this Cuban son
Eternamente Yolanda
Eternally Yolanda
