Began to be recognized in its interpretation of the song "Enamorada" by Agustin Lara, who also produced for her songs like "Lamento Jarocho", "Veracruz", "Noche Criolla ", "Oración Caribe", "Palmera", "La clave azul "and " La Cumbancha "which appeared together in a music magazine in the Teatro Esperanza in December 1932, with such success that should extend their presentations for a long time.
She also sang for Cuban legends La Sonora Matancera. The alley where she was born in the old barrio of "La Huaca" in the city of Veracruz, México, carries her name. After her death the municipality of Veracruz has erected a statue of Toña la Negra within sight of the old church of Cristo del Buen Viaje (1609) bordering on the La Huaca barrio.
The German film director Christian Baudissin made a documentary about Toña la Negra for television in 1993 with interviews with her ex-husband the musician "Vittillo" Victor Ruiz Pazos and others who knew her.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y no podes emcontrar
un motivo para sonreir
cuando todo esto se complica
y se da vuelta te preguntas
donde es que se debe ir
y quedate aca quedate aca
quedate aca quedate aca
laberintos sin salida
que no siega el existir
cuando interrumpen despedidas
yo te pidoque te acuerdes
que no todo fue asi
y quedate aca, quedate aca

si no podes quedarte
andate no te ato
solo esta el recuerdo
de un te quiero tanto si
y las memorias de lo bello
que alimentaban mis sueños
que pemsaba compartir
voa te me fuiste antes de tiempo
y yo quede partido al medio
sinmas ganas de sentir
pero sigo aca, pero sigo aca
pero sigo aca pero sigo aca
si no podes quedarte andate
no te ato
solo esta el recuerdo
de un te quiero tanto
tu ideal de este mundo
esta conmigo
tu valores viviran adentro mio
vos seguis aca,

Si volviera a encontrarte
No se que te diria
Tal vez en un instatnte todo se olvidaria
Si volviera a encontrate
No se
Que te diria
Te diria
Ven aca
Que de rodillas te estoy pidiendo
Ven, tu ven aca
Otra vez
Quiero en tus ojos, en esos ojos
Poderme ver
Ven aca
A devolverme todos los besos que yo te di
Tu recuerdo me hace llorar cuando siento
Que te perdi
Ven aca
Aunque tu fueras de todo el mundo
Yo soy de ti
Tu Ven aca
A devolverme todos los besos
Que yo te di
Tu recuerdo me hace llorar cuando siento que te perdi
Ven aca
Ven aca
Que aunque tu fueras de todo el mundo
Yo soy de ti
Ven aca.

Toña la Negra tiene la fuerza de poder poner todo el sentimiento en la palabra, de hacer que cada sílaba vibre al unisono del corazón y del alma
