Copla Campesina
Cuando la Luna, reina del cielo
Sobre los valles tiende su manto
A mí me encuentra junto a mi chata
Viendo sus ojos, amando tanto
Luego la Luna, reina del cielo
Tras la montaña desaparece
Y a mí me encuentra el alba despierto
En pie de lucha cuando amanece
A un cuaco brioso le echo montura
Cuaco retinto, canela pura
Mi chata en nuestro jacal se queda
Me voy cantando por la vereda
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Ya maduraron los cafetales
Parecen labios tirando besos
Serán alivio para mis males
Son la respuesta para mis rezos
Ya maduraron los cafetales
Ya se llegó el tiempo de cosecha
Bien repletitos van mis costales
Sobre mis mulas abriendo brecha
Mi cuaco brioso me echa un relincho
Luego me acerco y le aprieto el cincho
Mi chata en nuestro jacal me espera
Vuelvo cantando por mi pradera
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Esta copla campesina
Se oye del valle a la colina
Country Verse
When the Moon, queen of the sky
He spreads his cloak over the valleys
He finds me next to my truck
Looking into your eyes, loving so much
Then the Moon, queen of the sky
Behind the mountain disappears
And the dawn finds me awake
On the warpath when dawn breaks
I put a saddle on a spirited horse
Cuaco retinto, pure cinnamon
My flat stays in our hut
I'm going singing along the sidewalk
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
The coffee plantations have already matured
They look like lips throwing kisses
They will be relief for my ills
They are the answer to my prayers
The coffee plantations have already matured
Harvest time has arrived
My sacks are well packed
On my mules opening a gap
My lively horse neighs at me
Then I approach and tighten the belt
My chata in our hut awaits me
I return singing through my meadow
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
This peasant couplet
It is heard from the valley to the hill
