Stop the chamayo!Vayan parando el chamayo!
They will sing hand in handVan a cantar mano a mano
Lorenzo and the entrerrianoLorenzo y el entrerriano
Payadores of my flowerPayadores de mi flor
The Creole feeling will come outSaldrá el sentimiento criollo
Enancao to the thoughtEnancao a el pensamiento
On the cart of a lamentSobre el flete de un lamento
That is looking for a loveQue va buscando un amor

Where did you go, tangoDonde te fuiste tango
That I always look for youQue te busco siempre
And I can't find youY no te puedo hayar
I swear by my old ladyTe juro por mi vieja
That if I don't find youQue si no te encuentro
I'll start cryingMe pongo a yorar

I went through Florida yesterdayFui por Florida ayer
And through Corrientes todayY por corrientes hoy

That they had left youQue te habían piantado
With your bandoneonCon tu bandoneón
But I know that youPero yo sé que vos
Won't endure the trainNo aguantaras el tren

And the taita, with his skillY el taita, con su pericia
Asks the pampa, feliciaPide a la pampa, felicia
To remove the gray foxQue se quite el zorro gris
And dance straight old manY baile derecho viejo

So that the Porteño soulPara que el alma porteña
Resurfaces big and happyResurja grande y feliz
