about

A classic huapango huasteco learned from Rolando "El Quecho" Hernandez of Mexico City, Mexico.

Las Conchitas is a classic of Huapango Huasteco and also a tune that crosses into the son calentano repertoire. Los Hermanos Calderón were a popular group who influenced a whole generation of musicians in the Huasteca, and their recordings are some of the best examples of Huapango in the 1960s. One of the brothers, Bernabé, is still living in Ciudad Valles, San Luis Potosí, and continues to play.

lyrics

El mar canta sus querellas, el mar canta sus querellas
El cielo, al oir sus cuitas, el cielo al oil sus cuitas
El mar canta sus querellas
Y decia con frases bellas, y decia con frases bellas
Con palabras esquitas:
Si tu me das las estrellas
Yo te ofrezco mis conchitas.


En el mar se crean conchitas
Pero no en todos lugares
Hay grandes y hay chiquitas
Pero en los reinos polares
Ahi se creen las mas bonitas
Las de enacarados lunares

Eres conchita del mar, eres conchita del mar
Desde el puerto de tampico, desde el puerto de tampico
Eres conchita del mar
Sal conmigo a platicar, sal conmigo a platicar
Aunque sea un ratito
No tienes que recelar
Ya sabes que soy solito
