Pa' la Barriada Hernández
Pa' la Barriada Hernández
Los tres ocho
The Three Eight
Dale por debajo el ala
Hit the brim below
Al Chango e'tala
Al Chango e'tala
Yo me puse a pintar
I started painting
Un chango de blanco
A chango in white
Cuando terminé
When I finished
Me dio con soltarlo
I found it out
El chango se fue
The chango is gone
Volando sereno
Flying serenely
Pero sus hermanos
But his brothers
No lo conocieron
They didn't know him
Que pena me dio
What a shame it gave me
Me sentí culpable
I felt guilty
De que solitario
That lonely
Volara en el aire
Fly in the air
Pero con la lluvia
But with the rain
Que cae de los cielos
That falls from the heavens
Se fue restaurando
It was restored
Su color de nuevo
Your color again
El ya regresó
He has already returned
Y está compartiendo
And it's sharing
Pero que susto pasó
But what a scare happened?
Y así se pasa diciendo
And so it goes by saying
Yo me quiero
I love myself
Me quiero quedar negrito
I want to stay black
Nací con este color
I was born with this color
Y es que me queda bonito, bonito
And it looks nice, beautiful
Bonito no, bonito no
Nice no, nice no
Lo bueno que me ha salido
The good thing that has come out of me
Huye, huye
Run away, run away
Yo me quiero
I love myself
Me quiero quedar negrito
I want to stay black
Nací con este color
I was born with this color
Me queda bonito
It looks nice for me
Volar bajo el aguacero
Flying in the downpour
Eso si fue buena táctica
That was a good tactic
Con mi color yo me quedo
With my color I stay
Porque me vino de fábrica
Because it came to me from the factory
Que fue carnal
That it was carnal
Yo me quiero
I love myself
Me quiero quedar negrito
I want to stay black
Nací con este color
I was born with this color
Me queda bonito
It looks nice for me
Cuando ese chango llegó
When that chango arrived
To' pintaito de blanco
To' pintaito de blanco
Ellos no lo conocieron
They didn't know him.
Creyeron era Michael Jackson
They thought it was Michael Jackson
Pa' que le des muñeca
Pa' that you give him wrist
Pa'que, pa' que sepan
Pa'que, pa' que sabe
Yo me quiero
I love myself
Me quiero quedar negrito
I want to stay black
Nací con este color
I was born with this color
Me queda bonito
It looks nice for me
Fue que se confundieron
It was that they got confused
Todos perdieron la calma
Everyone lost their cool
Y fue cuando miraron
And that's when they looked
Creyeron que era un fantasma
They thought it was a ghost.
Yo me quiero
I love myself
Me quiero quedar negrito
I want to stay black
Nací con este color
I was born with this color
Me queda bonito
It looks nice for me
Yo tengo mis pollitos
I have my chicks
Campeo mi poquito callaito
Campeo mi poquito callaito
Que me lleven preso si es delito
That they take me prisoner if it is a crime
Negro, negrito
Black, negrito
Chango, Changuito
Chango, Changuito

Con tanto chango e' tala
