La Cerrillana
Con la pollera yuta
Las trenzas largas te vi pasar
Y ahí nomás a mi zaino
En el guardapatio lo hice rayar
Desmonté del caballo
Me puse cerca pa' mosquetear
Con el alma en un hilo
Mi negra linda, te vi bailar
Cómo olvidarte cerrillos
Si por tu culpa tengo mujer
Morena cerrillana, con alma y vida te cantaré
Todos los carnavales
Para cerrillos te llevaré
Luego siguieron zambas
Bailamos juntos sin descanzar
Entre medio 'e los cuetes
Y serpentinas del carnaval
Miércoles de ceniza
Enharinados nos vio pasar
Y en ancas de mi zaino
Luego a mi rancho fuimos a dar
Cómo olvidarte cerrillos
Si por tu culpa tengo mujer
Morena cerrillana, con alma y vida te cantaré
Todos los carnavales
Para cerrillos te llevaré
The Cerrillana
With the yuta skirt
I saw you pass by with your long braids
And right there to my chestnut
In the backyard I had it scratched
I dismounted from the horse
I got close to fire at him
With the soul on a thread
My beautiful black girl, I saw you dance
How to forget matches
If it's your fault that I have a wife
Morena cerrillana, with soul and life I will sing to you
All carnivals
I will take you to the hills
Then followed zambas
We danced together without resting
Between the firecrackers
And carnival streamers
Ash Wednesday
Floured he saw us pass by
And on the haunches of my chestnut
Then we went to my ranch to give
How to forget matches
If it's your fault that I have a wife
Morena cerrillana, with soul and life I will sing to you
All carnivals
I will take you to the hills
