Canta Zamba (Zamba)

When I hear the guitars playing zambasCuando siento en las guitarras zambas
Zambas, zambasZambas, zambas
My heart lifts up and singsSe me alegra el corazón y canta
Zambas, zambasZambas, zambas

The memory of my holy motherEl recuerdo de mi madre santa
Sings, singsCanta, canta
And in the air, the white handkerchiefY en el aire el pañuelo blanco
Sings zambaCanta zamba

Hills, rivers of your songsCerros, ríos de tus cantos
The wind makes zambasHace el viento zambas
And on the branch of the talas, it whistlesY en la rama de los talas silba
Zamba, zambaZamba, zamba

When a kid herding goatsCuando chango pastoreando cabras
I only feelSolo siento
That the clink of the bells singsQue el tin-tin de los cencerros canta
Zambas, zambasZambas, zambas

The nostalgia of that beloved ageLa nostalgia de esa edad querida
You bring zambaTraes zamba
With the sorrow that life gives usCon la pena que nos da la vida
Zamba, zambasZamba, zambas

Hills, riversCerros, ríos
Of your song, the wind makes zambasDe tu canto hace el viento zambas
And on the branch of the talas, it whistlesY en la rama de los tala silba
Zambas, zambasZambas, zambas
