La luna con el romero
The moon with the rosemary
La aurora con el pinar
The dawn with the pine grove
El viento con la marea
The wind with the tide
Y el trigo con la enrramá
And the wheat with the greenery
La noche busca pareja
The night seeks a partner
La fiesta ya va a empezar
The party is about to start
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you don't dance with me
Prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
La lluvia con el naranjo
The rain with the orange tree
La niebla con el cristal
The fog with the glass
La albahaca tiene un tomillo
The basil has a thyme
Que la espera en el rosal
That waits in the rosebush
Yo he visto un cielo estrellado
I've seen a starry sky
Bailando sobre la mar
Dancing over the sea
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you don't dance with me
La noche se queda en vilo
The night hangs in suspense
Y si tú no bailas conmigo
And if you don't dance with me
Yo prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
Yo he visto un sol desgreñado
I've seen a disheveled sun
Con una nube bailar
Dancing with a cloud
Bailaba la mariposa
The butterfly danced
Con un granito de sal
With a grain of salt
La acacia con el ingenio
The acacia with wit
La yerba y el matorral
The herb and the thicket
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you don't dance with me
Prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
La yuca con el gengibre
The cassava with ginger
En un pilón de majar
In a mortar of delight
Se almidonaban de besos
They starch with kisses
Apretaditos en vals
Tightly in waltz
Y hasta la flor de azucena
And even the lily flower
Ya tiene con quien bailar
Already has someone to dance with
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you don't dance with me
La noche se queda en vilo
The night hangs in suspense
Y si tú no bailas conmigo
And if you don't dance with me
Yo prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you don't dance with me
La noche se queda en vilo
The night hangs in suspense
Y si tú no bailas conmigo
And if you don't dance with me
Yo prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
Si tú no bailas conmigo
If you won't dance with me
Prefiero no bailar
I'd rather not dance
