Lyrics
Casa los tres patios,
una vieja aljiba calcomida por la cal
lucha a muerte con los años
lucha con la humedad.
Casa los tres patios,
donde pilares sostienen corredores
y las cocinas tienen 9 o 10 fogones
Casa los tres patios,
hablan de pobreza, hablan de dolores,
hablan de la grandeza, hablan de sudores
Hay gente que se marcha
hay gente que se queda
hay gente que no alcanza
la gente desespera
Casa los tres patios.
En la calle la Botica
mientras los niños con las niñas
jugaban al esconder.
En la calle la Botica
nuestros padres y nuestras madres
no tenian pa comer, pero la grandeza
de ese vecindario hacen que la pobreza
sea valor humano.
Hay gente que se marcha
hay gente que se queda
hay gente que no alcanza
la gente desespera
Cas los tres patios.
Lyrics translation
House the three courtyards,
an old cistern carved by the lime
fight to the death over the years
struggle with moisture.
House the three courtyards,
where pillars hold runners
and the kitchens have 9 or 10 stoves
House the three courtyards,
they speak of poverty, they speak of pain,
they speak of greatness, they speak of sweat
There are people leaving
there are people who stay
there are people who do not reach
people despair
House the three courtyards.
On La Botica Street
while boys with girls
they played hide-and-seek.
On La Botica Street
our fathers and mothers
they did not eat pa, but greatness
that neighborhood make poverty
be human value.
There are people leaving
there are people who stay
there are people who do not reach
people despair
Cas all three courtyards.
