On the Trail, On the Trail

RAPHAEL

A La Huella, A La Huella

A la huella, a la huella
José y María
Por las pampas heladas
Cardos y ortigas

A la huella, a la huella
Cortando campos
No hay cobijos ni fondas
Sigan andando

Florecita del campo
Flores del aire
Si ninguno te aloja
A dónde nace

Donde naces florcita
Que estás creciendo
Palomita asustada
Grillo sin sueño

A la huella, a la huella
José y María
Con un Dios escondido
Nadie sabía

A la huella, a la huella
Los peregrinos
Presenti una tapera
Para mi niño

A la huella, a la huella
Soles y Luna
Los ojitos de almendra
Piel de aceituna

¡Ay! Burrito del campo
¡Ay! Buey mansito
Mi niño está viniendo
Háganle sitio

Un ranchito de quincha
Solo le ampara
Los alientos amigos
La Luna clara

A la huella, a la huella
José y María

On the Trail, On the Trail

On the trail, on the trail
José and Maria
Through the frozen plains
Thistles and nettles

On the trail, on the trail
Cutting through fields
No shelters or inns
Keep on walking

Little flower of the field
Flowers in the air
If no one takes you in
Where do you bloom

Where you bloom, little flower
That you’re growing
Scared little dove
Sleepless cricket

On the trail, on the trail
José and Maria
With a hidden God
No one knew

On the trail, on the trail
The pilgrims
Presenting a shack
For my child

On the trail, on the trail
Suns and Moon
Almond-shaped eyes
Olive skin

Oh! Little donkey of the field
Oh! Gentle ox
My child is coming
Make some room

A little hut of reeds
Is all that shelters him
The friendly breaths
The clear Moon

On the trail, on the trail
José and Maria
