Venderé La Marranita

I'll sell the little pig
Let's see how much it weighs
The day after tomorrow, babe
The party starts

I'll sell the little pig
Let's see if it gets me by
And while I'm at it, I'll ask
For some pork cracklings
Tomorrow we all eat
Pork cracklings

The kids don't have flip-flops
Your shawl is already torn
If the money doesn't stretch
Hey, I'll sell my colt
If the money doesn't stretch
Babe, I'll sell even the colt

But you, my love, will be
Yeah, you'll be the shining star
That lights up the party
Candelaria celebration
That lights up the party
Candelaria celebration

Party in Juliantla
Candelaria celebration

I'll sell the little pig
And with the cash
I'll buy your new outfit, babe
For February second

I'll buy for the kids
Their shoes and their dresses
You see, I've always bragged
About being responsible, babe
I'd rather be a dead man, babe
Than a man who breaks his word

You get ready for mass
With your two gold earrings
Iron me a shirt
White, to face a bull
I promise I'll take care, babe
You know I adore you

And you'll see, my love, you'll see
That you'll be the shining star
That lights up the party
Candelaria celebration
That lights up the party
Candelaria celebration

Party in my town
Candelaria celebration
