Candelora

When the time of Candelora comes,
we’d clear out the old stuff and bring in the new...
And all the land like a young girl,
would get ready to receive the blessing...

And all the big and small ones
would light candles, more than a thousand,
to drive out the bad from inside the houses,
and to bless the hands for the coming year...

Feel it, yeah,
this sun that’s here,
caresses you like a king.
Feel it, yeah,
this air that’s here,
it’s time for music in my heart.

Let’s eat, my friends, and then we’ll drink,
as long as there’s light in the lantern,
who knows if in the other world we’ll see each other,
who knows if in the other world there’s a tavern...

Feel it, yeah,
this land that’s here
is a queen without a king...
Feel it, yeah,
this party that’s here,
spins the world around you...

My girl, if you want to dance,
don’t lift your dress until the new year.
