¿Y Qué Tú Quieres Que Te Den?

I'm listening to you
I'm listening to you
Gbogbo Aché
And che mi sa ra ma woo ee
I'm listening to you

They came from Africa
And among us they remained
All those warriors
That they passed into my culture

Obatala Las Mercedes
Ochún is Charity
Saint Barbara Chango
And Regla is Yemayá
The ceremony is about to begin
Let's do charity

The house is full and there is no more room
And everyone wonders what Elegguá will say
He opens the ways, that is the truth
Let's give it some coconut and see what it gives us

People go out, people come
And everyone asks for what suits them
I'm going to ask for good things for my mom
And for my family, peace of mind

May everyone on this earth
Behave yourself and the war will end
There are people who tell you that they don't believe in anything
And they go to consult each other at dawn

Don't be ashamed, ask for yourself
Don't ask for bad things, you'll regret it

(And what do you want them to give you?)
Rosa Zayas, my mother, listen carefully
(And what do you want them to give you?)
Gloria Andreu
Mommy Mandela
(And what do you want them to give you?)
(And what do you want them to give you?)

Tell me what you want to be given
(And what do you want them to give you?)
Ask Chango to make you feel good
(And what do you want them to give you?)
They came from Africa and stayed among us
(And what do you want them to give you?)
So ask your Saint, ask your Saint again

(I'm going to ask for you) just in case (the same as you for me)
If I know we love each other, how could I not do it like this?
(I'm going to ask for you the same thing you ask for me)
From my heart, I'm sorry, I'll ask for the best for you, the best

(I'm going to ask for you the same thing you ask for me)
And I repeat that I, I, I, I will ask (the same as you for me)
To love you forever, in my life, I will find the way (the same as you for me)
The same

And what do you want for me?
And what do you want for me?
And what do you want for me?
And what do you want for me?
And what do you want for me?

Blessed Saint Barbara, Ochún is charity (and what do you want for me?)
And to see the open path, you have to talk to Elegguá (and what do you want for me?)
Make sure, make sure (and what do you want for me?)
With Oggún and Changó, with that, I'll beat you (and what do you want for me?)

Yes (and what do you want for me?)
(And what do you want for me?)
Yansá Ecuajey, Yansá

There, nothing more
To all the religious people of my Cuba and the world
Let's sing to the Orishas
And we're going to start with Elegguá
And look how the chorus says pa' Elegguá, Havana
Look how he says, hey, he says that, let's go

Eleggua go

Ala ala yo ye ma san nkio

Ay, Elegguá, Elegguá aso kere-kere me yé

We come, we come, we come with Obatalá
So that it gives us a lot of peace and a lot of, look, come on, tranquility

We sing to the owner of the world
Let's sing to Yemaya, gentlemen
Hey, repeat, hey, he says, look
And we will ask, and we will ask

Water for Yemaya
But what water? Water for Yemaya
Water for Yemaya
Yemaya asesu asesu Yemaya
Water for Yemaya
Yemaya asesu asesu Yemaya
Water for Yemaya
Yemaya asesu asesu Yemaya
Water

Winds, good winds with Oya herself
And look how the chorus says pa' Oya, look how it says, let's go

Oya, Oya, Oya ilé
Oya mo ba loroke
But I'm going to go
But I'm going to go

Oya, Oya, Oya ilé
Oya mo ba loroke
Yansá ma tererema
Yansá ma tererema

Oya, Oya, Oya ilé
Oya mo ba loroke
Yansá ma tererema
Yansá ma tererema

Well, ladies and gentlemen, look
So that no mistake touches me
And I did not touch error
I'm going to tell you, hey

Where do Oggún's children go?
To war
Hey, but where are Oggún's children going, sir?
To war
Hey, where are you taking me, where are you taking me?
Hey, for war
Where to?
Where is it taking me, where is it taking me?
Hey, for war
Where to?
Where is it taking me, where is it taking me?
Hey, for war
Where to?
Where is it taking me, where is it taking me?
Hey, for war
Where to?

You, you who are such a miraculous and all-powerful Saint
My old man Saint Lazarus, hey, listen
And look how the chorus says for the old man, look how it says
As

Baba arere
Baba Sorroso
Oh, but what baba arere baba sorroso
Baba Sorroso
Baba arere sere rere, hey
Baba Sorroso

Oh, I'm singing pretty to you
And look how I enjoy it
Baba arere (yes)
Baba Sorroso
I am asking for your blessing
For being such a miraculous Saint

Palo Mayimbe takes me to the Loma
People are saying that I have a house there in La Loma
Palo Mayimbe takes me to the Loma
Hey, but why are you calling me? It takes me to

Stick takes me there, takes me there
Stick takes me to (party), takes me to
Stick takes me to (party), takes me to
Stick takes me to (party), takes me to
Stick takes me to (party), takes me to
Stick takes me to (party), takes me to

The time has come to sing to the patron saint of Cuba
Ochún's daughters with their hands up
Because you don't know
You don't know what you are
Since they came out of their mother's womb
Do you know what you are, mommy?

Mommy, I ask you Orunmila
Mommy, I ask you Orunmila
Mommy, I ask you Orunmila

Because you dance with tremendous gusto (Mommy, I ask you for Orunmila)
The blessing of the daughters of Oshún (Mommy, I ask you Orunmila)
That reaches the mon le epi (mommy, I ask you Orunmila)
That comes to the con le eti (mommy, I ask you Orunmila)

There you go, how nice
Applause for all the religious people of my Cuba
For its nice detail, oh
Further down is the street
Land that is glorious
And it's not just me who says it
That we are [?], that's why

To God and Chango
And look how the chorus says, for God's sake
To God and Chango
Rumbero, if you know how, don't get involved
To God and Chango
Yes, this has evil, this has flavor
To God and Chango
I have one hand up, that I am whole
To God and Chango (oh, yes)
To God and Chango
To God and Chango (yes)

I think I'll go sailing
When I sing and I don't see you dance
I think I'll go sailing
Let's go guarachar, mom
I think I'll go sailing
Let's go guarachar, mom, oh
I think I'll go sailing
To Manzanillo Bay
I think I'll go sailing
To Manzanillo Bay
I think I'll go sailing
I think I'll go sailing
I think I'll sail (there)

Ladies and gentlemen, let's sing to him, look, listen
To Chango
And look how he says, look, listen

And whoever has something red
(Take it out)
I repeat myself
And whoever has something red
(Take it out)
Go on
And whoever has something white
(Take it out)
And whoever has a Chango necklace, Chango
(Take it out)
And whoever has the hand of Orunmila
(Take it out)
And the one with the shell, how?
(Take it out)

Whoever messes with me messes with Changó
There's a sunga rungue
Not with me, with Changó
Oh, don't get involved, mommy, don't get involved
Not with me, with Changó
If you know, why are you messing with me?
Not with me, with Changó
Yes, repeat the chorus for me

Not with me!
Move over there, Mom!
Not with me!
Move over there, Mom!
Not with me!
Move over there, Mom!

And what do you want for me?
I ask Obatalá for peace and tranquility
And what do you want for me?
Mrs. Omito Nardé, my song is for you
And what do you want for me?
Yansá Ecuajey, Yansá
And what do you want for me?
