Pink Martini performs "¿Donde estas, Yolanda?" with lead singer China Forbes on vocals at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland, Oregon, 2005.

Excerpted from Pink Martini's concert DVD release "Discover the World," this performance was filmed live in concert at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland Oregon on December 31, 2005, featuring vocalist China Forbes. "¿Donde estas, Yolanda?" is a fan favorite Pink Martini cover song, a staple of the band's live performances, originally heard on the band's debut album Sympathique. The song was written by Peruvian musician Manuel Jimenez Fernandez and made popular in the 1960s by Afro-Cuban singer Orlando Contreras and the Mexican group Sonora Santanera. This version features Thomas Lauderdale on the piano, China Forbes on vocals, with Gavin Bondy on trumpet, and featuring a trombone solo by Robert Taylor.
LYRICS:

Donde estas, donde estas, Yolanda
Que paso, que paso, Yolanda
Te busque, te busque, Yolanda
Y no estas, y no estas Yolanda

Tus ojos me miraron
Tus labios me besaron
Con ese fuego ardiente
Ardiente de mujer

La luz de tu mirada
El fuego de tus labios
Flecharon a mi pecho
y de ti me enamore

Me dicen que paseabas
En un carro Yolanda
Muy guapa y arrogante
Y todos te silbaban

Si un dia te encontrara
No se que puedo hacer
No se me vuelvo loco
Si ya no te vuelvo a ver
¿Donde Estas Yolanda? English translation

Where are you, Yolanda?
What happened, Yolanda?
I’ve looked for you, Yolanda
And you're not here, Yolanda

Your eyes gazed at mine
Your lips kissed mine
With desire and passion
The passion of a woman

The sparkle in your eye
The fire of your lips
Conquered my heart
And I fell in love with you

They tell me your were cruising around
In your new car Yolanda
Looking very pretty and proud
And all the men whistled at you

If someday I find you
I won’t know what will happen
I think I will go crazy
If I never see you again
