Below, I translated the lyrics of the song EL COCUYO by Silvestre Dangond from Spanish to English.
Nene, llegó tu papi
Baby, your daddy arrived
Se te acabó la fiesta, oh
Your party's over, oh
Ay, te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
Oh, they are filling your head with cocuyo
De cocuyo, de cocuyo
From cocuyo, from cocuyo
Pero yo soy tuyo, siempre tuyo, siempre tuyo
But I am yours, always yours, always yours
El que venga hablarte mal de mí
Whoever comes to speak ill of me
Sin tener un sueldo corazón
Without having a heart salary
Es porque está enamorado de ti
It's because he is in love with you
O de pronto es que le gusto yo
Or suddenly he likes me
El que crea que me va a hacer infeliz
Whoever thinks is going to make me unhappy
Sea hombre, sea mujer, se equivocó
Be it a man, be it a woman, he was wrong
Ay, te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
Oh, they are filling your head with cocuyo
Y cuanto gozan los que van a fastidiarte
And how much those who are going to annoy you enjoy
Café con sal dámele a esos vagabundos
Coffee with salt, give it to those homeless people
Pa' que se vayan con su música a otra parte
So they can go somewhere else with their music
Ay, te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
Oh, they are filling your head with cocuyo
De cocuyo, de cocuyo
From cocuyo, from cocuyo
Pero yo soy tuyo, siempre tuyo, siempre tuyo
But I am yours, always yours, always yours
Bueno, yo le voy a
Well, I'm going to
Se metió papá-yay
Dad-yay got in
Morocho no te dejes
Morocho, don't leave
El papá de Vale
Vale's dad
Pa' que se prenda el Valle
So that the Valley lights up
Arrubénchate, arrubénchate
Get dressed, get dressed
Te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
They are filling your head with cocuyo
De cocuyo, de cocuyo
From cocuyo, from cocuyo
Pero yo soy tuyo, siempre tuyo, siempre tuyo
But I am yours, always yours, always yours
Amo las personas bochincheras
I love loud people
Vean a uno feliz y les da envidia
They see someone happy and they are envious
No dan pa' vivir su propia vida
They can't afford to live their own life
Y quieren vivir la vida ajena
And they want to live someone else's life
Después dicen que Dios las castiga
Then they say that God punishes them
Siendo que ellas mismas se condenan
Since they condemn themselves
Y te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
And they are filling your head with cocuyo
Y cuanto gozan los que van a fastidiarte
And how much those who are going to annoy you enjoy
Café con sal dámele a esos vagabundos
Coffee with salt, give it to those homeless people
Pa' que se vayan con su música a otra parte
So they can go somewhere else with their music
Te están llenando la cabeza de cocuyo
They are filling your head with cocuyo
De cocuyo, de cocuyo
From cocuyo, from cocuyo
Pero yo soy tuyo, siempre tuyo, siempre tuyo
But I am yours, always yours, always yours
¿Qué pasa mi pana?
What's wrong my friend?
Y de Codazzi pa Miami
And from Codazzi to Miami
Mi socio, Ivan Daza
My partner, Ivan Daza
Te amo así
I love you this way
Sí, así, me volvei' loco así, sí
Yes, like that, I go crazy like that, yes
Bueno, quedamo' así
Well, let's stay like this
Se las dejo ahí
He left them there
