Even with my poor translation and spelling errors, you were still able to help!

The first two lines are actually:
"Chirilito negro, pecho colorado.
Eso te sucede, Guambrita, por enamorada"

It appears the man (who sings the song I'm listening to) took the song quoted above and altered it to fit his story. ?
In Ecuador "guambrita/o' means girl, kid, child, boy.

Una linda guambrita = A pretty girl.
