LA PARRANDA (THE BIG PARTY) Lyrics

Artist: Gloria Estefan
Album: Abriendo Puertas

This song blends a high energy array of grooves such as Colobian "chande" with Venezuelen "tambores" and an insidious rythmic pattern from a typical snare drum section there is a sudden appearance of "bata" drums along with a happy trumpet solo, and choruses that explode into a thick unison of voices resembling a big party.
This is a "party" song, where everything is magical, happy, and exhiliarating. It says "this night is far from being over, we are going to have fun until the sun comes up".

Van llegando
They are arriving

La fiesta va a comenzar
The party is about to begin

Esta noche la parranda
Tonight is the big party

No tiene como acabar
It has no end

Ya se escuchan
Now they are listening to

Las notas
The notes

Del acordeon
Of the accordian

De gaitas que enamoran al repique de la tambor
Of flutes that love the beating of the drum

Que suenen los cueros
How the skins sound

Todo es alegr٠
All is happy

Se pendio el jaleo
Its lost in the din

Que toque la chirimia
How plays the oboe
-------------------
CORO:

Se formo el jologorio
The merryment is building

Y la algarab٠
And so is the din

Que esto no es ningâ' velorio
This no wake

Todo es alegr٠ (x 2)
All is happy
------------------

Sigue el baile
The dance continues

Hoy vamos a amanecer
Today we going till dawn

La noche va muriendo y hay fiesta por nacer
The night is dying and the party is born

Que alegr٠
What happyness

Tenerte junto a mŒˆTo have you by my side

La vida es m† bonita
Life is more beautiful

Cuando se quiere asi
When it is so

Un beso a mis viejos
A kiss to my old pals

un trago pa'don facunfo
A toast for father time

Esto si esta bueno
This is so good

Lechona pa todo el mundo
Food for everyone

-------------------
CORO:

Se formo el jologorio
The merryment is buliding

Y la algarab٠
And the din

Que esto no es ningâ' velorio
This is no wake

Todo es alegr٠ (x 2)
All is happy

------------------

A la noche respira ilusi‡
The night breaths magic

De augurios que le lanzan
Of best wishes that are cast

Al viento sodor
On the singing winds

Mil historias
Thousand tales

Se tejen mas alla
They weave beyond

De vidas que abrazan
They embrace life

De amores que vendran
Of loves to come

Que suenen los cueros
How the drumskins sound

Todo es alegr٠
All is merry

Se prendio el jaleo
Its lost in the din

Que toque la chirmia
How plays the oboe
-------------------
CORO:

Se formo el jologorio
The merryment is buliding

Y la algarab٠
And the din

Que esto no es ningâ' velorio
This is no wake

Todo es alegr٠ x 2
All is happy

------------------

Se armo el jolgorio
The merryment gets stronger

La algarab٠
The din

Eso es ningâ' velorio
No wake

Todo es alegr٠
All is merry

Se armo el jolgorio
The merryment gets stronger

La parranda se prendio
The party really going

La algarab٠
The din

Prendio vamos todos a bailar
Lets all dance

Ningâ' velorio

All is happy

Por el ano que se va
For the passing year

Se armo el jolgorio
The merryment is building

Que siga la fiesta
Let the party continue

La algarab٠

Hasta que amanezea
Until dawn

Ningâ' velorio

La parranda no se acaba
The parties does not end

Hasta el sol de la manana
Until the rising sun of the morning

Lets carry on dancing

Que el a‰ se estŒˆ acabando
as if the year is ending
