El payandé [English translation]

I was born on the beaches of Magdalena

in the shadows of a payandé tree,

since my mother was a black slave,

I also had that mark on me.

Ai

Lucky bad girl wearing chains

and being the slave

and being the slave of a mean master

When in the shadows of a palm tree

I'm trying to hide for the rude sun,

cruel slashes cross my back

and remind me of being a slave.

Ai

Lucky bad girl wearing chains

and being the slave

and being the slave of a mean master

Yes I could grab my spear,

revenge me furiously on my master

I would love to see myself burn his house

and I would rip out his heart.

Ai

Lucky bad girl wearing chains

and being the slave

and being the slave of a mean master
