Quirpa
Guiripa lo llaman Quirpa
Oigalo bien, Quirpa es joropo llanero
Quirpa es Joropo llanero
por que cantar en el alma
con el arpa y guitarrero
Quirpa nacio en la sabana,
donde nacen los cantares
y como quirpa lo dice,
lo plasmaron los cantares.
Hombre del alto apureño
con gracia y conversacion
Con gracia y conversacion,
si yo tuviera mis complas,
se las cantaria al bordon
Yo no se por que en Guiripa,
no quieren a los llaneros,
porque mataron a Quirpa
e hirieron al guitarrero
Quirpa
Guiripa they call Quirpa
Listen well, Quirpa is llanero joropo
Quirpa is llanero joropo
because it sings in the soul
with the harp and guitar player
Quirpa was born in the savannah,
where songs are born
and as quirpa says it,
the songs shaped it.
Man from the high Apure
with grace and conversation
With grace and conversation,
if I had my complas,
I would sing them to the bordon
I don't know why in Guiripa,
they don't like llaneros,
because they killed Quirpa
and wounded the guitar player
