Doña Maria Rios
True countrywoman
Tanned by the sun
Women of that kind
I don't think there's
Anyone better
She goes around those parts
Eager to dance
And on her gentle horse
She goes to the calm
Of the Carnival
Chorus
For you
I have in my bandoneon
Doña María Ríos
My heartfelt song
She knows how to lasso
In any situation
And gather the cattle
Putting reins
On her wild one
Her gaucho blood is
In every sunrise
And through Ruiz de los Llanos
The people from Tucumán
Often see her
