This song is about a relationship which isn't working out, and a celebration that it's over. With a sarcastic tone, he says that he's sorry it won't work out. ...You don't taste sweet like chocolate anymore! ("Ya no me sabe a chocolate...")
Dime que fue lo que pasó que no te diste cuenta
No viste las señales, ahora no te arrepientas
Tuviste que notar que algo andaba mal
Tu actitud por si cambió, y no te veo igual
El velo del orgullo te afectó la visión
Y ahora ya es muy tarde, qué mala situación
Dime qué vás a hacer, porque de mi te vás
Dime que vás a hacer, ¡Ay, Pero qué pena me dá!
Coro: ¡Ay, Pero que pena me dá!
Soneos:
Que pena me dá con tu caso querida
Ay, vuela te pa’ llá, aquí no haces falta
Qué pena me dá, ya no quiero más
En el juego de la vida, ya tu te vás
Yo sí voy a seguir guarachando
Yo sí voy a seguir cantando
Se acabó lo que se daba, vámonos
Coro 2: Bombón, ya no me sabe a chocolate, Bombón
Soneos:
Escucha bien! Como el chocolate enfrió, se acabó
Date cuenta, después de tanta pena, vete ya morena
Anda pa’ llá amor por ti no tengo más.
Coro 3: Bombón, ya no tienes el que, que, que ,qué
Out: Pero qué pena me dá Pero qué pena me dá.

During the first UK lockdown in 2020, this album took me all the way to the Peruvian Amazon. This album's a great introduction to one of the main players of psychedelic cumbia, Amazon style. Each track's full of sunshine j j headington
I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
