Aguanile Aguanile
Santo Dios, Santo Fuerte, Santo Inmortal
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Eh Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai

Eh Kyrie Eleison Christe Elaison No Te Metas A Mi Mona
Que Yo Tambien Me Se De'so
Oye Todo El Mundo Reza Que Reza
Pa'que Se Acabe La Gueraa
Eso No Se Acabar Eso Sera Una Rareza

Ay Tambores Umaculli, Tambores Umaculla
Que Se Echen Todo Pa'lao
Que La Tierra Va Ha Temblar
Que Abonbon Chele Abonbonchacha
Yo Traigo A Pa' Rociar A Las Muchachas

Ax Que Lostres Clavos De La Cruz
Vayan Delante De Mi
Que Le Hablen Y Le Responda
Ay Dios Tuve
Al Que Me Critique A Mi
Yo Tengo Aganile Mai Mai

Un Judio Que A Caballo Gritaba Sin Compasion
Como Jesus Crucificaron Muerto Por Una Traicion
Eh Abongonchele Abongochacha
Aguanite Bendiceme A Las Muchachas
Ay Aguanile Dame Agua
Estoy Seco Y Quiero Beber
Ataca Quintero

Well, I thought this may be of some interest to people interested in this song's lyrics...

se interesaba por la música religiosa afrocaribeña en ((Aguanile)) , inspirada en un canto tradicional donde se invoca la bendición de Yemanya y la liberación contra las fuerzas negativas por medio del agua. En esta composición alterna el fuerte sabor religioso afroantillano con el cristianismo y la temática social.

... he showed interest in Afro-Caribbean religious music with “Aguanile”, which is inspired in a traditional chant to invoke the blessing of Yemanya and the riddance of negative vibes by using water. In this song, there’s a mixture of a strong Afro-Antillanean religious feeling and Christianism as well as social issues.

What does “aguanile” mean?

Por lo general la palabra Aguanile (originalmente escrita AGGUANILE) se utiliza en los cantos yoruba en honor al orisha Eleggua.... Pero AGGUAN significa limpieza e ILE casa propiedad terreno espacio... como le quieras decir...asi que AGGUANILE significaria limpieza de hogar o limpieza terrenal....

Generally, the vocable “Aguanile” (originally written AGGUANILE) is used in the Yoruba chants in honour of the Orisha Eleggua... but AGGUAN means cleaning and ILE means house, property, plot of land, espace... call it as you wish... so that AGGUANILE would be “Cleaning of your home or cleaning of your earthly possessions...”

So, it's something to do with Santeria.

Anyone out there with expertise on this matter?

Kyrie eleison:

Kyrie Eleison (Greek for "Lord have mercy"; the Latin transliteration supposes a pronunciation as in Modern Greek) is a very old, even pre-Christian, expression used constantly in all Christian liturgies

from: CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Kyrie Eleison

uufff... it's starting to make sense slowly...

mmhhh... I'm afraid I'm stuck! I just can't find any of the other "funny" words anywhere!

Any ideas or suggestions anyone?...

Well, my dear Figbrat... I gave you my word, so I'll try to keep it.

This is my best educated guess at translating this song:
-------

Aguanile Aguanile*
Santo Dios, Santo Fuerte, Santo Inmortal
Holy God, powerful Saint, immortal Saint
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Eh Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai

Eh Kyrie Eleison, Christe Elaison, No Te Metas A Mi Mona
Lord, have mercy; Jesuschrist, have mercy; and don’t mess around with us**
Que Yo Tambien Me Se De'so
‘cause I also know about that sort of thing,
Oye Todo El Mundo Reza Que Reza
listen how everyone is praying all the time
Pa'que Se Acabe La Guerra
so that war will come to an end
Eso No Se Va a Acabar Eso Sera Una Rareza
but it won’t happen, it would be really strange

Ay Tambores Umaculli, Tambores Umaculla
There are drums over here, and drums over there,
Que Se Echen Todo Pa'lao
Everyone stand aside
Que La Tierra Va Ha Temblar
because the Earth is going to tremble
Que Abonbon Chele Abonbonchacha*
Yo Traigo Aguanile Pa' Rociar A Las Muchachas
I’ve got aguanile*** to sprinkle the girls

Ay Que Los tres Clavos De La Cruz
Oh, let the three nails in the Cross
Vayan Delante De Mi
go ahead of me
Que Le Hablen Y Le Responda
let’em talk to Him and He answer to them,
Ay Dios Tu ve
And my God, you can see
Al Que Me Critique A Mi
those who criticize me

Yo Tengo Aguanile Mai Mai
I’ve got aguanile mai mai

Un Judio Que A Caballo Gritaba Sin Compasion
A Jew riding a horse was shouting mercilessly:
Oh Jesus Crucificado, Muerto Por Una Traicion
“Oh Jesus has been crucified! He’s dead because he was betrayed!”
Eh Abongonchele Abongochacha
Aguanile Bendiceme A Las Muchachas
Aguanile bless the girls
Ay Aguanile Dame Agua
Hey Aguanile, give me some water
Estoy Seco Y Quiero Beber
I’m thirsty and need to drink
Ataca Quintero
Go on Quintero
-----------------------------------------

*I reckon that “aguanile”, “abonbonchele” and “abonbonchacha” are a chant.

In Mexico, people who believe in magic go sometimes to a sorcerer when they’re having a streak of bad luck. There, they undergo a so-called “limpia”, during which they’re rubbed with diverse objects while the sorcerer chants. I’d think that here it’s sort of the same thing, someone is chanting (according to my googling results, to Yemaya, the goddess of maternity) while freeing a person or a house from evil spirits and negative vibes.

**I’m not sure at all about the third part of the sentence; I just deduced it from the context.

***I’d think “aguanile” here means (holy) water.

If you need or want more background info on this, I’d recommend:

SANTERIA, LA REGLA LUCUMI, and LUKUMI

SanterÃ*a - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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

Still we may be lucky that someone more familiar with this sort of thing will give us a more accurate translation or idea about this song.

Have a nice time!

I do know from reading about Mr Lavoe he did go see a VOODOO WITCH to help him get off drugs so this does makes sense that he would write a song about his feelings of this.... COULD AGUANILE MEAN SOME KIND OF HOLY WATER??????GEZ i SEE THAT YOU ALREADY MENTION IT COULD MEAN HOLY WATER LOL...THANX SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP

You're most welcome!

I don't really know much at all about Hector Lavoe, but this is turning very interesting indeed.

Hugs and Greetings, Citlalli

It's not reggaeton!!! It's a song that dates back to the early 70's! long before reggaeton came into being...
There are lots of websites with the lyrics for this song, and also a few sites with info on its meaning.
Maybe doing a bit of research before posting something here would be more helpful.

oh ok

Here Are The Lyrics

Aguanile Aguanile
Holy God, Strong Saint, Immortal Saint
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai
Eh Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Aguanile Mai Mai

Eh Kyrie Eleison Christe Elaison Do not get into my Mona
Because I know about that too
Listen, the whole world pray and pray
so that the war could end
But it will never end it will last

Ay Tambores Umaculli, Tambores Umaculla
move everything aside
the earth is going to shake
Que Abonbon Chele Abonbonchacha
I bring the girls to party

Ax Que Lostres nails from the cross
go ahead of me
so you can talk and repond
I had god
he criticizes me
I have Aganile Mai Mai

a judge who sentenced without compassion
Jesus died from cruxification due to treason
Eh Abongonchele Abongochacha
Aguanite bless the girls
Ay Aguanile give me water
I am dry and need a drink
Attack Quintero
