El Reperpero Lyrics in English Vicente Garcia
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Reperpero by Vicente Garcia from Spanish to English.
Y es que yo
And I
Prefiero guayai la yuca
I prefer to grate cassava
Prefiero picai la caña
I prefer to cut sugarcane
Prefiero olvidar tu amor
I prefer to forget your love
Pero yo
But I
Prefiero guayai la yuca
I prefer to grate cassava
Prefiero picai la caña
I prefer to cut sugarcane
Prefiero olvidar tu amor
I prefer to forget your love
Mi corazón
My heart
Es fe contra desespero
Is faith against despair
Cariño prisionero
Love imprisoned
De la duda y la confusión
By doubt and confusion
Y con razón
And rightly so
Mi pecho arma un reperpero
My chest makes a ruckus
Y siento que prefiero escapar
And I feel I'd rather escape
De esta situación
From this situation
Y es que yo
And I
Prefiero guayai la yuca
I prefer to grate cassava
Prefiero picai la caña
I prefer to cut sugarcane
Prefiero olvidar tu amor
I prefer to forget your love
Pero yo
But I
Prefiero guayai la yuca
I prefer to grate cassava
Prefiero picai la caña
I prefer to cut sugarcane
Prefiero olvidar tu amor
I prefer to forget your love
Y lo duro que es picar la caña
And how hard it is to cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (picai la caña)
That I don't want your love (cut sugarcane)
Me diga como sentir mi amor (guayai la yuca)
To tell me how to feel my love (grate cassava)
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (olvidar tu amor)
That I don't want your love (forget your love)
Que sigo pensando
That I keep thinking
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (picai la caña)
That I don't want your love (cut sugarcane)
Me diga como sentir mi amor (guayai la yuca)
To tell me how to feel my love (grate cassava)
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (olvidar tu amor)
That I don't want your love (forget your love)
Que sigo soñando
That I keep dreaming
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (picai la caña)
That I don't want your love (cut sugarcane)
Me diga como sentir mi amor (guayai la yuca)
To tell me how to feel my love (grate cassava)
Que yo no quiero que tu querer (olvidar tu amor)
That I don't want your love (forget your love)
Que sigo soñando
That I keep dreaming
Pajaritos en el aire
Little birds in the air
Que luego se desploman
That later collapse
Y es que ya no puedo
And I can't anymore
Con tu querer
With your love
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
Guayai la yuca
Grate cassava
Picai la caña
Cut sugarcane
