Lyrics
Yo no escucho lo que dicen
Las lenguas de vecindonas
Porque de sobra yo sé
Por quien está su persona
Cinco luceros azules
Alumbran cinco farolas
Desde su casa a mi casa
Desde su boca a su boca
Cinco añitos que le quiero
Cinco añitos que me adora
La mala gente que sabe
Que sabe de nuestras cosas
Si yo sé que me quieres, como le quiero
A que darle tres cuartos al pregonero
Desde su puerta misma hasta su puerta
La vereita verde, no cría yerba, no cría yerba
Yo no quiero ni saberlo
Vecina, cierre la boca
Y no me venga a decir
Que él va a casarse con otra
Los cinco añitos cabales
Queriéndole hora tras hora
Son un cordel en mi cuello
Que la garganta me ahoga
Con carbones encendidos
Que le quemen esa boca
Al que juró tantas veces
Que estaba por mi persona
Se apagaron las cinco, cinco farolas
Pa que nadie me vea llorando a solas
¡Ay, que penita madre!, ¡Madre que pena!
La vereita verde, cuajá de yerba
Cuajá de yerba
Lyrics translation
I don't listen to what they say
Neighbourhood languages
Because I know enough
Who is your person
Five blue stars
They light five lanterns
From your house to my house
From his mouth to his mouth
Five years I love him
Five years that adores me
The bad people who know
Who knows our stuff
If I know you love me, how I love him
To give three quarters to the preacher
From his own door to his own door
The vereita verde, does not breed grass, does not breed grass
I don't even want to know.
Neighbor, shut up.
And don't come and tell me
That he's going to marry another
The five years cabales
Loving him hour after hour
They're a string on my neck
That my throat drowns me
With burning coals
Burn that mouth.
To the one who swore so many times
That I was for myself
They went out at five, five lampposts
So that no one sees me crying alone
Oh, what a pity mother! Mother, what a pity!
La vereita verde, cuajá de yerba
Yerba curd
