Zaraza
Blanca huella que, todos los dias,
Clavado en el yugo, me ves picanear;
Compañera del largo camino
Las horas enteras te veo blanquear.
Mientras que, bajo el peso del trigo,
Los ejes cansados los siento quejar,
Yo, anudando mi pena a esa queja,
Con cantos y silbos te sé acompañar.
¡A la huella, huella, zaraza,
Huella, huella, guay!
Volverá la ingrata a su casa
Andará por áhi...
Que si yo la viera, zaraza,
La hablaré, velay...
¡A la huella, huella, zaraza,
Huella, huella, guay!
Buey zaraza, tus ojos tristones
Mirando la huella parecen buscar
El milagro de aquellos pasitos
Que al irse la ingrata no supo dejar.
Compañero que, unido conmigo
A un mismo destino, tenemos que andar,
Seguiremos rastreando la huella,
La misma gue siempre la vemos blanquear.
Contagion
White footprint that, every day,
Clamped in the yoke, you see me toil;
Companion of the long road
For hours on end I see you whiten.
While, under the weight of the wheat,
The tired axles I feel them groan,
I, tying my sorrow to that complaint,
With songs and whistles I know how to accompany you.
On the trail, trail, contagion,
Trail, trail, damn!
The ungrateful one will return home
She'll walk around...
If I were to see her, contagion,
I'll talk to her, watch out...
On the trail, trail, contagion,
Trail, trail, damn!
Contagion ox, your sad eyes
Looking at the trail seem to search
For the miracle of those little steps
That the ungrateful one didn't know how to leave behind.
Companion who, united with me
To the same destiny, we have to walk,
We will continue to track the trail,
The same one we always see whiten.
