El Quenero

The Quenero

El Quenero

With ringing bellsCon campanitas que suenan
he wakes up in the morningse levanta a la mañana
the quenero I tell youel quenero que les cuento
climbs to the highest peakssube a las cumbres más altas

Blowing and blowing a mysterySopla que sopla un misterio
a free flower on his caneuna flor libre en su caña
that the wind has given himque le ha regalado el viento
to take care of his soulpara que cuide su alma

His eyes look at the skySus ojos miran el cielo
there is no horizon worthno hay horizonte que valga
his eyes look at the skysus ojos miran el cielo
there is no horizon worthno hay horizonte que valga

When you teachCuando vos le enseñes
my children the sweet songa mis hijos la dulce canción
that the wind singsque canta el viento
