Soy Sabalero
Los Palmeras Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Por mi piel escapa el alma sabalera
Sangre y luto es el color de mi bandera
Y a los negros yo los llevo aquí en el alma
Es el negro un sentimiento que se lleva de verdad
Y que late al compás del corazón
Si ganara yo al infierno por ser negro y nada más
Sabale, sabale
La culpa es de este pueblo sabalero
Sabale, sabale
Que todo el mundo grite ¡dale negro!
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
He nacido en las orillas rojinegras
Yo me entiendo con la gente sabalera
Soy amiga del ciruja y del maestro
Con el sordo y con el punga yo me encuentro
Y en mi casa se codean la pobreza y el señor
Con el cura, el judío y el pastor
Y aunque me ganara el cielo por cambiarme de color
Moriré llevando negro el corazón
Sabale, sabale
La culpa es de este pueblo sabalero
Sabale, sabale
Que todo el mundo grite ¡dale negro!
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, yo soy sabalero
Ah eh eh ah, sabalero, sabalero
The lyrics to Los Palmeras's song "Soy Sabalero" are full of pride and passion for the Sabalero community. The first few lines state that it's unnecessary to tell someone that they belong to a certain race because it's reflected through one's skin and soul. The singer feels a deep connection to his Sabalero identity and wears it proudly, even referring to "blood and mourning" as the colors of his flag. He also carries the legacy of his ancestors, particularly the "negros," who are an indispensable part of his soul.
The following verses showcase the singer's bond with the Sabalero community. He was born in a place surrounded by the colors red and black (the colors of the Sabalero jersey), and he connects with everyone who shares this identity. He mentions that he's comfortable around people from all walks of life, from the destitute to the wealthy. He also embraces the differences in religion, as the priest, the Jewish, and the pastor all visit his home. The song's refrain, "Sabale, sabale," is a chant to support the Sabalero football team, and the singer invites everyone to join in and shout "dale negro" (go, black).
The message of this song is one of unity, inclusivity, and unapologetic pride in one's identity. Moreover, it shows the power of football to bring people together and create a strong sense of belonging. The lyrics are simple yet powerful, and the upbeat music adds to the joy and energy of the Sabalero community.
