Zamba Para Chilecito
Humito de leña verde
coleo se me hace el aire
Camino de chilecito me voy
se va paloma mi copla
Y el fuego de remolinos
Mi canto se va aromando de sol
Ya voy cruzando patquia
camino a los colorados
la cueva del chacho saludare
solito sin un recuerdo
que sabe a lunas de ausencia
y a soles que siempre recordare
Un famatina de luz llevo en mi guitarra
para enamorar, mi niña de chilecito,ojitos de acequia y uva
boquita de luna,cielo y azahar
mi niña de chilecito,ojitos de acequia y uva
Mi zamba yo te he venido a cantar
cerquita de samay huasi
corte del viento un racimo
lo voy degradando en el alma por vos
volviendo de huatolvido
hojitas que trae el rio
palabra de agua ,silencio y adios
Yo quiero volver cantando
topando al rio y al viento
y a tus calles soleaditas volver
pisar las hojitas secas
debajo de los nogales
y en cada parra mi copla encender.
Zamba For Chilecito
Smoke from green firewood
the air becomes a tail
I'm going on the road to Chilecito
my song flies away like a dove
And the fire of whirlwinds
My song is filled with the scent of the sun
I'm already crossing Patquia
on the way to Los Colorados
I'll greet Chacho's cave
alone without a memory
that tastes like moons of absence
and suns that I will always remember
I carry a Famatina of light in my guitar
to enchant, my girl from Chilecito, eyes of irrigation ditch and grape
little mouth of moon, sky, and orange blossom
my girl from Chilecito, eyes of irrigation ditch and grape
I have come to sing my zamba to you
Close to Samay Huasi
a bunch cut by the wind
I'm degrading it in my soul for you
returning from Huatolvido
little leaves brought by the river
word of water, silence, and goodbye
I want to return singing
colliding with the river and the wind
and return to your sunny streets
stepping on the dry leaves
under the walnut trees
and light up my song in every vineyard.
