Vámonos Negrito Lyrics in English Natalia Lafourcade

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vámonos Negrito by Natalia Lafourcade from Spanish to English.
Let's go, let's leave, babe
To walk along the path
That I have so many things
To tell you about my land
Let's go, let's leave, babe
To walk along the path
That I have so many things
To tell you about my land
In my land you breathe
An aroma of joy
In the waves it's sheltered
All its melancholy
And in its eyes I place
The hope of my days
And in these melodies
I share my life with you
Step by step and slowly
Carry me wherever you want
That I have so much history
To release like doves
Step by step and slowly
Carry me wherever you want
That I dance with your rhythm
Without fearing what happens
That the moon is watching
And the clouds wait for us
This sea is calling
And the sand laughs without shame
That this love is being born
Like a river that keeps flowing
That this love is sprouting
Like the field blooming
In my land one sighs
The color of its beauty
In the mountains are sheltered
Those who guard its riches
And in its wisdom
And its light by night and day
And in these melodies
I share my life with you
And in these melodies
I share my life with you
Let's go, let's leave, babe
Let's walk
Along the path

SONG MEANING

Natalia Lafourcade’s “Vámonos Negrito” feels like a warm invitation to wander hand in hand down a rural Mexican path, soaking up every scent, color, and sound along the way. Addressing her negrito—a tender nickname for a loved one—she promises stories that flutter out "like doves," letting the listener taste the joy in the air, the wistful hush of the waves, and the hope she stores in her homeland’s bright eyes. Each step of the walk reveals another postcard of Mexico: laughing sand, watchful moonlight, mountains guarding hidden treasures, and music that carries her very life.

Beneath the vivid nature imagery lies a budding love that flows "like a river" and blossoms "like a field in spring." The song blends romantic closeness with cultural pride, showing that sharing a place is also sharing a heart. By the end, the gentle refrain—"Vamos vámonos negrito"—becomes both a celebration of Mexico’s beauty and an embrace of whatever adventures love, music, and the open trail may bring.
