Lyrics

La luna con el romero
La aurora con el pinar
El viento con la marea
y el trigo con la enrramá
La noche busca pareja
la fiesta ya va a empezar
Si tú no bailas conmigo
prefiero no bailar
La lluvia con el naranjo
La niebla con el cristal
La albahaca tiene un tomillo
que la espera en el rosal
Yo he visto un cielo estrellado
bailando sobre la mar
Si tú no bailas conmigo
la noche se queda en vilo
Si tú no bailas conmigo
prefiero no bailar
Yo he visto un sol desgreñado
con una nube bailar
Bailaba la mariposa
con un granito de sal
La acacia con el ingenio
La yerba y el matorral
Si tú no bailas conmigo
prefiero no bailar
La yuca con el gengibre
en un pilón de majar
Se almidonaban de besos
apretaditos en vals
y hasta la flor de azucena
ya tiene con quien bailar
Si tú no bailas conmigo
la noche se queda en vilo
Si tú no bailas conmigo
prefiero no bailar

Lyrics translation

The moon with rosemary
The aurora with the pine forest
The wind with the tide
and the wheat with the corn
The night is looking for a couple
the party's about to start.
If you don't dance with me
I'd rather not dance
Rain with orange
The fog with the glass
Basil has a thyme
waiting for her in the Rose Garden
I've seen a starry sky
dancing on the sea
If you don't dance with me
the night stays in the wind
If you don't dance with me
I'd rather not dance
I've seen a scorched Sun
with a cloud dancing
Dancing The Butterfly
with a granite of salt
Acacia with wit
The grass and the Bush
If you don't dance with me
I'd rather not dance
Cassava with ginger
on a pylon of majar
They starched with kisses
waltz tight
and even the lily flower
she already has someone to dance with
If you don't dance with me
the night stays in the wind
If you don't dance with me
I'd rather not dance
