I would like to know if it is (2)Quisiera saber si está (2)
There is the house of yaguaAllí la casa de yagua
From the jagua stickDesde el palito de jagua
The quenepo and the guamalEl quenepo y el guamal
And there is the hanging hammockY está la hamaca colgá
The hanging hammockLa hamaca colgá
In which I restedEn la que yo descansaba
Because last night I was looking for itPorque anoche la buscaba
In a dream I dreamedEn un sueño que soñé
And crying I woke upY llorando desperté
Seeing that I couldn't find itAl ver que no la encontraba
(Music)(Música)

And I will see once again (2)Y yo veré una vez más (2)
The little cow and the calfLa vaquita y el becerro
As they went down the hillComo bajaban al cerro
To drink in the streamA beber en la quebrá
And the fierce dog behindY el perro fiero detrás
Blessed manBendito hombre
Who went down with themQue junto a ellos bajaba
I contemplated all thisTodo esto lo contemplaba
And it was a pleasure for meY era un placer para mi
And last night how much I sufferedY anoche cuánto sufrí
Because I dreamed it wasn't there ulelolailelolaiPor que soñé que no estaba ulelolailelolai
And the goldfinch will sing there (2)Y cantará allá el jilguero (2)
At the edge of the roadA la orilla del camino
How it sang its songComo entonaba su trino
On the branch of a jigüeroEn la rama de un jigüero
To know that is what I wantSaber eso es lo que quiero
Blessed manBendito hombre
Who worried me so muchQue tanto me preocupaba
And last night when I dreamedY anoche cuando soñaba
I cried with feelingLloraba con sentimiento
I felt a great remorseSentí un gran remordimiento
Because I dreamed it wasn't therePorque soñé que no estaba
