The night is near

and the stars dress up the skies

The night is near



a cumbia night of beauty

The night is near

and the sun starts to hide

A beautiful moon rises

Iighting up the darkness

By the beach

by the sea

the night is for dancing cumbia

By the beach

by the sea

the night is for dancing cumbia

She waits for sundown

holding her emotions

So they can dance and enjoy



this cumbia of the night

If I take bus route 50

I cross the lndependencia

then I pass next to

La Campana hill

I'm going to "Revolucion "

to see if I find my loved one

The distant notes of an accordion

are Celso at La Campana
rehearsing a new song

"Revolucion Proletaria "

is a beautiful neighborhood

And my baby shines her light

Iike the early morning sun

And if I don 't find you at "Revu "

I'll look for you in Sierra Ventana

Hello

Covered with tattoos

is the body of the city

Signed by "El Amaya "

and som etim es by "El Prozac"

The violence am ong the gangs

so com m on in this region

I'd like it to end

with all my heart

And get them dancing

when they hear my song

N eto, th is is Fabiola,
Letty' s sister i n-law.

I have a gig for you on Saturday

a first com m union.

You have to dress nice
and can"t step on the altar.

Give me a call the num ber is 83

38 46 23

I"m waiting for your call.

How"s it goin".

I was waiting for your call.

That fat chick from the wedding
is hasslin" me about her video.

I hope you finished
because she's pissed off.

She says she won"t pay you.

Call her, tell her it"s ready.

OK, But finish it.

Call me back, dude.

When "la cumbiamba " starts

she shows up

moving her hips

full of life

Everyone checks her out closely

waiting for the moment

to fuse all their bodies

in the wheel of the "cum bion "

Everybody surrenders

to the charm of her dancing

And if she don 't love m e

my heart is lost

Hel lo.

When I sing from the soul

I always look happy

My soul m ight be torn apart

but my faith is still strong

The accordion that keeps m e company

is a gift from God

The sorrow that I feel

is a thorn in my soul

Wail, accordion, wail

because your song brings joy

to those who hear my voice

and your m oving agony

F ol low the bus, please

The stars in the sky

witness my sorrow

They inspired this song

to give me some comfort

The mountains of my land

are an echo to my voice

The only thing I lea ve behind

on the day that I die

Wail, accordion, wail

because your song brings joy

to those who hear my voice

and your m oving agony

I'll open my heart

to win your love

I'd give you the sky

its stars and com ets

I'd give you the full moon

and the blue of the seas

With a chorus of sirens

every evening at sunset

If you give me your love

I'll give you everything

I'll open my heart

to win your love

Every October night

and the most beautiful sunrise

And all I want you to give me

is the beauty of your body

Don 't share it with anyone else

because I want it for myself

The most beautiful thing in the world

is your pretty face, woman

Getti ng off!

Som e lousy pri nce!

I know this love is forbidden

I know I should be faithful

But even if I love him madly

there 's another man in my life

and in my thoughts

I'm not sure this a whim

or if I'm just confused

or if I love them both

I can 't live without their love

With them I find happiness

From one I steal

pure and honest love

From the other I steal heat

passion and kisses

With one I find joy

and m om ents of happiness

With the other I ha ve a hom e

for a very long tim e

The heart can 't be ruled

it falls in love on its own

without asking who

If I fell in love

with a second person

it's not my fault

Because I want them both

I love them both

I can 't stop loving them

Two roads in my life

divide my heart

One is a very good man

who lives with m e and loves me

The other is a forbidden love

because of social class

he is not like m e

But I can 't live without their love

They both make m e happy

The heart can 't be ruled

it falls in love on its own

without asking who

I fell in love

with a second man

that's not my fault

Because I want them both

I love them both

I can 't stop loving them

When the drums beat

the ritual begins

We dance among the people

that makes them vibrate

Slowly the afternoon dies

but the sun refuses to set

Because the moon is jealous

and refuses to com e out

Your dancing beautifies

the very hea vens and skies

And I'll keep dancing

so you know I love you

You know

I always dream of you

I always think about you

And I can 't forget you

You 're deep inside

my thoughts

I can 't live without you

without your loving kisses

I need you and to survive

I need your warm th

Walking the streets of the barrio

I see our nam es

we drew in love

swearing to love each other

You 're my reason for living

even though I know it's hopeless

Because I know a new love

you 've already found

However, my love

I still love you

Because you 'll always be

my greatest love

P lay it for h i m.

Th is is the Lam b of God

who washes away
the si ns of the world

I don 't know what's in a cumbia

that it's made me fall in love

With a beautiful little "chola "

I'm dying to kiss her

She 's so mysterious

with all her charms

She should touch me with her hands
