Para Cantarle a Mi Gente

Milonga like this,Milonga asi,
To sing to my peoplePara cantarle a mi gente
Seeing her so forgotten,De tanto verla olvidada,
I bring my song closerLe arrimo mi canto
I give her hopeLe doy esperanza

Milonga like this,Milonga asi,
To sing to my peoplePara cantarle a mi gente
I sing to find herYo canto para encontrarla
And if she listens to meY si ella me escucha
My song is neededMi canto hace falta

I look for her voiceBusco su voz
To singPara cantar
Her throat is my throatSu garganta es mi garganta
With her I amCon ella estoy
Let's walkVamos a andar
Her path in the morningSu camino en la mañana

Milonga like this,Milonga asi,
To sing to my peoplePara cantarle a mi gente
In these same wordsEn estas mismas palabras
Patience is running outSe va la paciencia
That is already endingQue ya se le acaba
I look for her voiceBusco su voz
To singPara cantar
Her throat is my throatSu garganta es mi garganta
With her I amCon ella estoy
Let's walkVamos a andar
Her path in the morningSu camino en la mañana

To sing to my peoplePara cantarle a mi gente
In these same wordsEn estas mismas palabras
Patience is running outSe va la paciencia
That is already endingQue ya se le acaba

What I will give herLo que a ella le dare
With her voiceCon su voz
Which is my voiceQue es mi voz
In milonga I will singEn milonga cantare
