Lyrics

La guajira es una dama reclinada
Mi guajra es una dama reclinada
Bañada por las aguas del caribe inmenso
Y lleva con orgullo en sus entrañas
Y lleva con orgullo en sus entrañas
Su riqueza guardada orgullo pa mi pueblo
Majestuosa encabezando el mapa
Cual pedestal representando a un reino
Majestuosa encabezando el mapa
Cual pedestal representando a un reino
Luciendo con soltura y elegancia
Una gigantezca manta y joyas de misterio
Luciendo con soltura y elegancia
Una gigantezca manta y joyas de misterio
Esa es mi guajira engalanada que
Por años fue olvidada y hoy se yergue grande
Esa es mi guajira engalanada que
Por años fue olvidada y hoy se yergue grande
Viene un heredero a reclamarla porque tiene plata
Porque ahora si vale
Viene un heredero a reclamarla porque tiene plata
Porque ahora si vale
Mi guajira bella
Mi guajira grande
Colombia es un pulpo desaforado
Mi colombia es un pulpo desaforado
Como un millon de pescado en tiempos de subienda
Y parece un caballo desbocado
Y parece un caballo desbocado
Con un jinete malo sin quien lo detenga
Y ese jinete viene enamorado
Y porque es india cree que esta de venta
Y ese jinete viene enamorado
Y porque es india cree que esta de venta
Pero el enamorado esta casado
Pa una union de dotao
Mejor sigue soltera
Ahora que la dama tiene plata
Viene el galan a la casa y promete quererla
Ahora que la dama tiene plata
Viene el galan a la casa y promete quererla
Claro tiene el gas que es una ganga
La sal de manaure y su carbon piedra
Pa los gringos su carbon de piedra
Pa los yankees su carbon de piedra
Pa los monos su carbon de piedra
Para los japoneses su carbon de piedra
Pa los sudafricanos su carbon de piedra
Y pa nosotros
Que comamos
Piedras

Lyrics translation

La guajira is a recumbent lady
My guajra is a recumbent lady
Washed by the waters of the immense Caribbean
And carries with pride in his bowels
And carries with pride in his bowels
Their wealth kept Pride pa my people
Majestic heading the map
Like a pedestal representing a kingdom
Majestic heading the map
Like a pedestal representing a kingdom
Looking loose and elegant
A gigantic blanket and jewels of mystery
Looking loose and elegant
A gigantic blanket and jewels of mystery
That's my fancy guajira that
For years it was forgotten and today it stands tall
That's my fancy guajira that
For years it was forgotten and today it stands tall
An heir comes to claim it because he has money
'Cause it's okay now.
An heir comes to claim it because he has money
'Cause it's okay now.
Mi Guajira bella
My big guajira
Colombia is a wild octopus
My colombia is a wild octopus
Like a million fish in times of upheaval
And it looks like an empty horse
And it looks like an empty horse
With a bad rider without anyone to stop him
And that Horseman comes in love
And because it's india thinks it's for sale
And that Horseman comes in love
And because it's india thinks it's for sale
But the lover is married
Pa a dotao union
Better still single
Now that the lady has silver
The galan comes to the house and promises to love her
Now that the lady has silver
The galan comes to the house and promises to love her
Sure has the gas which is a bargain
The salt of manaure and its carbon stone
Pa the gringos their stone carbon
Pa the yankees their stone carbon
Pa The Monkeys their stone carbon
For the Japanese their stone carbon
Pa the South Africans their stone carbon
And pa us
Let us eat
Stone
