Lyrics
Por el camino va Malinche,
paso de polvo y canela
mira que voy buscando
por el camino a mi corazón
Vengo con mi promesa
buscando ceiba y el caracol
mira que juega ese malacate
mira que come ese camarón
De la costa viene caminando
con paso libre tono de mar
la morena una rede carga
medalla de oro y de coral
Por el camino va Malinche
paso de amor y de penas
busco en los días buenos
con la Marina bailar chilena
Yo te quiero a ti, morena
niña Marina del corazón
mira que baila toro e’petate
mira que busca un toro rabón
Lyrics translation
On the way goes Malinche,
step of powder and cinnamon
Look What I'm looking for
on the way to my heart
I come with my promise
looking for ceiba and the snail
look what that malacate plays
look who eats that shrimp
From the coast comes walking
with free passage sea tone
the brunette a Rede cargo
gold and coral medal
On the way goes Malinche
step of love and sorrow
I look on good days
with the Chilean Navy dancing
I love you, brunette
Navy Heart Girl
look who dances bull e'petate
look who's looking for a bull Rabon
