Cosquín, Your Memory

Cosquín, Tu Recuerdo

The moon dancing on the riverLa luna bailando en el río
A river that sings tunesUn río que canta tonadas
Tunes that speak of dreamsTonadas que dicen los sueños
The singing dreams of that guitaristLos sueños cantores del aquel guitarrero
Tunes that speak of dreamsTonadas que dicen los sueños
The singing dreams of that guitarist.Los sueños cantores del aquel guitarrero.

The night embracing illusionsLa noche abrazando ilusiones
The square filled with longingsLa plaza colmada de anhelos
Cosquín bustling with preparationsCosquín que se afana en aprestos
Waiting for Don Julio to speak to the winds.Esperar a don julio decir a los vientos.

Here in CosquínAquí cosquín
Bells, colorful fireworksCampana, bombas de colores
The voices that fill the night todayLas voces que hoy llenan la noche
Reflect the soul of those singersReflejan el alma de aquellos cantores
Beginning of the nine moonsComienzo de las nueve lunas
That will tell the world their lullaby.Que dirán al mundo su canto de cuna.
