Correntino Until Death

Correntino Hasta Morir

I was invited and I triedMe invitaron y probé
to get to know other places,de conocer otros pagos,
they talked to me about other placesde otros lugares me hablaron
and I swear I was tempted.y les juro me tente.

I left my CorrientesA mi Corrientes dejé
thinking of changing my life,pensando cambiar de vida,
I swear I wouldn'tle juro que no daría
want to go back there again.por volver allí otra vez.

How beautiful they must beQué lindas deben estar
Bella Vista, Asti, Salada,Bella Vista, Asti, Salada,
Mercedes, Berón de Astrada,Mercedes, Berón de Astrada,
Itatí, General Paz.Itatí, General Paz.

When I start to rememberCuando empiezo a recordar
I dream of going back there,sueño con volver allí,
I was born in Taragüiyo he nacido en Taragüi
and no one will make me change.y nadie me hará cambiar.

I know I will be missed,Me ha de extrañar, ya lo sé,
by the Santa Lucía river,el río Santa Lucía,
I told them I would returnle dije que volvería
to be a cattleman, maybe.a ser nutriero, tal vez.

They will see me with the axeCon el hacha me han de ver
around the lands of Empedanto,por los pagos de Empedanto,
and I will load the red quebrachoy al quebracho colorado
in its port.en su puerto cargaré.
