El Carbonero
Los Hermanos Flores
The Charcoal Maker
I am a charcoal maker who comes
From the mountain tops, yes sir
With my little black charcoal
That pours out love's fire.
From the Rosario mountain tops
From other towns of the volcano
Always walking alone
To sell them my charcoal.
If my sir is a good charcoal
Buy it from Nacascol
And from Chaperno and Copinol
Every sir is good charcoal
Every sir is good charcoal.
Charcoal maker dances the cumbia
I am a charcoal maker who comes
From the volcano mountain tops
With my little black charcoal
That pours out love's fire.
I pass through the valleys
Where the torogoz moans
And when I arrive at the market
I proclaim with my voice.
If my sir is a good charcoal
Buy it from Nacascol
And from Chaperno and Copinol
Every sir is good charcoal
Every sir is good charcoal.
And this is a tribute that the Flores brothers dedicate
To our great composer Pancho Lara from El Salvador.
Dance the cumbia.
