The black woman walks with grace

This black baby that is going on walking
This black baby has its own rhythm
And when people are watching her
She dances by the side she walks by really tight (busy)
 
The black woman walks with grace
And doesn’t walk along the side
 
If you want to reach straight away
You’d better walk head-on
So that there won’t be any obstacles
And come here you will beat everything.
 
If you want to be there first
You’d better run slowly
Enjoy life well
Even if simultaneously you will be taking measures
 
The black woman walks with grace
And doesn’t walk along the side
 
When people die
It is said that they were so nice
So nice when they were alive
Like the night and the day
 
But let them come and tell me the truth
I can’t stand the lies anymore
I enjoy life well
Even if simultaneously i have to take measures
 
The black woman walks with grace
And doesn’t walk along the side
 
Tiene tumbao
Anda derechito no camina de lao
Diosa de la noche, dulce como el melao
Otra como ella yo nunca he encontrao
 
Come here so as to be able to share
Because you are the beautiful black woman that makes me happy
 
I don’t want any other
You are the one who gives me inspiration
Without you i am dying
I need you my heart is breaking
I don’t want any other
If you aren’t here i feel desperate
Without you I am dying.
