La Cigarra (part. Lila Downs) Natalia Jiménez English Translation
Applause for Lila Downs
Olé!
Mariachi!
Don’t sing to me anymore, cicada
Let your monotonous tune end
Your singing here in my soul
Like a dagger pierces me
Knowing that when you sing (give it all you got)
You are proclaiming your death
Sailor, sailor (there)
Tell me if it’s true that you know
Because I can’t distinguish
If in the depths of the seas
There is another color darker
Than the color of my sorrows
Ay, la-la-la
Ay, la-la-la
There is another color darker
Than the color of my sorrows (ole)
A little dove flying
With a wounded chest
Almost crying
It told me very distressed
I am tired of looking for
A love that is reciprocated
Under the shade of a tree
And to the rhythm of my guitar
I sing joyfully this huapango
Because life is ending
And I want to die singing
Like the cicada dies
Ay, la-ray (that’s it, Lila)
Ay, la-ra-la (ole)
Ay, la-ra-la-ra-lay
And I want to die singing
Like the cicada dies
