Cien Años de Chacarera

Wild and rural flowerFlor silvestre y campesina
Simple and unique in the worldSimple y única en el mundo
You were born on the fifteenth of AugustNaciste el quince de agosto
In nineteen-o-oneDe mil novecientos uno

You were a dream in ClodomiraFuiste un sueño em Clodomira
Scenting its pathsAromando sus veredas
Innocent to your destinyInocente a tu destino
Of giving birth to the country danceDe parir la chacarera

In your teenage mouthEn tu boca adolescente
A singer kissed as he passed byUn cantor beso al pasar
Let's go to La BandaVamonos para La banda
Children, you won't be lackingHijos no te han de faltar

Hundred years of country danceCien años de chacarera
Searching for the infiniteQue buscan del infinito
I want to keep celebratingQuiero seguir festejando
Sun inside on SundaySol adentro del domingo

Land, soccer, and guitarTierra, fútbol y guitarra
It's the neighborhood of the lakesEs el barrio de los lagos
And a channel that refreshes usY un canal que nos refresca
In the summer feversEn las fiebres del verano

In the century of that courtyardEn el siglo de ese patio
The mysteries were ignitedSe encendieron los misterios
Sending the world rollingHechando a rodar al mundo
Twelve singing apostlesDoce apóstoles copleros
