Era un bohío tras un cafetal muy triste y sombrío
It was a hut after a very sad and gloomy coffee plantation.
Nadie en siembra puede cultivar se secado el rio
No one in planting can cultivate the river
Se escucho el lamento de un hombre rogando a los elementos
The wailing of a man was heard begging the elements
Hay si la lluvia quisiera caer la cosecha se puede salvar
There is if the rain wanted to fall the harvest can be saved
Si quisiera caer tendremos sustento
If I wanted to fall we will have sustenance
Ya ya
Yes yes
Canta coro canta, canta y repite mi ruego
Sing choir sings, sings and repeats my plea
Si la siembra se muere sin nada me quedo
If the sowing dies with nothing I stay
Lluvia, lluvia, lluvia de tu cielo sereno
Rain, rain, rain from your serene sky
Aguacero de mayo ven cae en febrero
May downpour come falls in February
Pa que a la siembra no le pase nada
Pa that nothing happens to the sowing
Solo de piano y mambo
Piano and mambo solo
Al santo le vengo a rezar
To the saint I come to pray
Debe ser que rezo bajo y no me pué escuchar
It must be that I pray low and I can't listen to myself
Que llueva que llueva ya
Let it rain let it rain now
Ya no hay agua los ríos no hay agua pana pana
No more water rivers no water corduroy
Por el monte ay se escucha un lamento
On Mount Ay a lament is heard
Lluvia cae lluvia pa que tengamos sustento
Rain falls rain so that we have sustenance
Yo no, no yo no, no no te pido riquezas mi dios
I don't, I don't, I don't ask you for riches my god
Te pido lluvia pues sin la lluvia se muere to
I ask you for rain because without the rain you die to
Que será de mis hijos, que será de mi esposa que será de mi hogar
That it will be of my children, that will be of my wife that will be of my home
Que será del bohío y de mi cafetal
What will be the hut and my coffee plantation
Anda ay manda un aguacero la tierra seca esta
Anda ay sends a downpour the dry land is
Santo ay santo bueno venme ayudar
Holy oh holy good come to me help
