No Me Den Candela - Willie Colón, Héctor Lavoé

No me den candela, no me tiren sal

no me prendan vela, no me miren mal.

Eh… que no me den candela,

no me tiren sal

ay que no no no no no me prendan vela,

me van a matar.

Eh… que si me pongo una chalina nueva

me la quieren quitar

ay que envidia tan grande tienen cosa buena,

me quieren liquidar.

Pero saoco yo sigo pa' lante

y nunca pa’tras

ay yo no me llevo con las lenguas larga,

yo sé que mi día llegará.

Asalaé asalaé me tiene más salao

que un bacalao, me van a matar

ay Dios mío dame paciencia

y conformidad.

No me den candela, no me tiren sal.

A la lae a eh… cosita buena

ven conmigo y no mires pa’tras.

Eh.

que yo me baño con mejorana y altamisa

y a mi los santos me tienen que ayudar.

Oyeme bien Micaela con los santos no se juesga

y conmigo tampoco vas a jugar.

Ay no me tiren sal no me miren mal

déjenme quieto bendito s

Don't give me a candle, don't throw salt at me

don't light a candle for me, don't look at me badly.

Eh... don't give me a candle,

don't throw salt at me

Oh, no, no, no, don't light a candle for me,

they are going to kill me

Eh… what if I put on a new scarf

they want to take it away from me

Oh, what a great envy they have, a good thing,

They want to liquidate me.

But saoco I continue pa' lante

and never pa'tras

Oh, I don't get along with long tongues,

I know my day will come.

Asalaé asalaé has more salao for me

that a cod, they are going to kill me

oh my God give me patience

and compliance.

Don't give me a candle, don't throw salt at me.

A la lae a eh… good little thing

Come with me and don't look back.

Hey.

that I bathe with marjoram and feverfew

and the saints have to help me.

Listen to me, Micaela with the saints is not played

And you're not going to play with me either.

Oh, don't throw salt at me, don't look at me badly

leave me alone blessed s
