The Pomeña

Mercedes Sosa

La Pomeña

Eulogia Tapia en La Poma
Al aire da su ternura
Si pasa sobre la arena
Y va pisando la Luna
Si pasa sobre la arena
Y va pisando la Luna

El trigo que va cortando
Madura por su cintura
Mirando flores de alfalfa
Sus ojos negros se azulan
Mirando flores de alfalfa
Sus ojos negros se azulan

El sauce de tu casa
Te está llorando
Porque te roban, Eulogia
Carnavaleando
Porque te roban, Eulogia
Carnavaleando

La cara se le enharina
La sombra se le enarena
Cantando y desencantando
Se le entreveran las penas
Cantando y desencantando
Se le entreveran las penas

Viene en un caballo blanco
La caja, en sus manos, tiembla
Y cuando se hunde en la noche
Es una dalia morena
Y cuando se hunde en la noche
Es una dalia morena

El sauce de tu casa
Te está llorando
Porque te roban, Eulogia
Carnavaleando
Porque te roban, Eulogia
Carnavaleando

The Pomeña

Eulogia Tapia in La Poma
Gives her tenderness to the air
If she walks on the sand
And steps on the Moon
If she walks on the sand
And steps on the Moon

The wheat she's cutting
Ripens by her waist
Looking at alfalfa flowers
Her black eyes turn blue
Looking at alfalfa flowers
Her black eyes turn blue

The willow tree at your house
Is crying for you
Because they steal from you, Eulogia
Dancing in the carnival
Because they steal from you, Eulogia
Dancing in the carnival

Her face gets covered in flour
Her shadow gets filled with sand
Singing and disenchanting
Her sorrows get mixed up
Singing and disenchanting
Her sorrows get mixed up

She comes on a white horse
The box trembles in her hands
And when she sinks into the night
She becomes a dark dahlia
And when she sinks into the night
She becomes a dark dahlia

The willow tree at your house
Is crying for you
Because they steal from you, Eulogia
Dancing in the carnival
Because they steal from you, Eulogia
Dancing in the carnival
