Slim Gaillard – Babalu Lyrics
Artist: Slim Gaillard
Song: Babalu
Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu
Aye baba rooney, baba rooney
Aye baba rooney rooby rooby roo
‘Ta empezando lo velorio
Que le hacemo a Babalú
Dame diez y siete velas
Pa’ ponerle en cruz
Dame un cabo de tabaco mayenye
Y un jarrito de aguardiente
Dame un poco de dinero mayenye
Pa’ que me de la suerte
Y quiero pedir
Que mi negra me quiera
Que tenga dinero
Y que no se muera
Ay! Yo le quiero pedir a Babalú
Una negra muy santa como tú
Que no tenga otro negro
Pa’ que no se fuera
Babalú a ye!
Babalú a ye!
Jingle bells, jingle rooney
Babalú a ye!
Babalú a ye!
Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu

Babalu Lyrics – English Translation
Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu
Aye Baba Rooney, Baba Rooney
AYE BABA ROONEY ROBY ROBY ROO
‘Ta starting the wake
That made Babalú
Give me seven and seven candles
Pa ‘put on cross
Give me a Mayenye tobacco cape
And a brandy jar
Give me some money Mayenye
For my luck
And I want to ask
May my black love me
Have money
And don’t die
Oh! I want to ask Babalú
A very holy black like you
That has no other black
So that he did not leave
Babalú a Ye!
Babalú a Ye!
Jingle Bells, Jingle Rooney
Babalú a Ye!
Babalú a Ye!
Babalu, Babalu, Shango
Babalu, Babalu, Babalu
