Fiesta Churita

How beautiful is the chacareraQué linda es la chacarera
Danced in the dirt courtyardBailada en patio de tierra
Underneath a thatched roofDebajo de una enramada
With a roof of hollow caneCon techo de caña hueca
How beautiful is the chacareraQué linda es la chacarera
Danced in the dirt courtyardBailada en patio de tierra

Improvised platformsTarimas improvisadas
On four-wheeled cartsEn chatas de cuatro ruedas
And musicians delightingY músicos que deleitan
The entire audienceA toda la concurrencia
Improvised platformsTarimas improvisadas
On four-wheeled cartsEn chatas de cuatro ruedas

And paper decorationsY adornos de papelitos
Displaying various colorsLuciendo varios colores
Fluttering in the windFlameando a los cuatro vientos
They look like bouquets of flowersParecen ramos de flores
And paper decorationsY adornos de papelitos
Displaying various colorsLuciendo varios colores

(Chacarera, chacarera)(Chacarera, chacarera)
(The evening star has surprised me)(Me ha sorprendido el lucero)
(Without feeling the night pass)(Sin sentir pasar la noche)
(Dancing with the one I love)(Bailando con la que quiero)
(Chacarera, chacarera)(Chacarera, chacarera)
(The evening star has surprised me)(Me ha sorprendido el lucero)

To the side of the dance floorA un costado de la pista
Is the most beautiful partEstá la parte más bella
A pit covered with tarpsUn pozo tapao con lonas
Cooling some bottlesRefrescando unas botellas
To the side of the dance floorA un costado de la pista
Is the most beautiful partEstá la parte más bella

Forming a necklace, the sulkysFormando un collar los sulkys
Doze under the night skyDormitan bajo el sereno
And patiently waitY esperan pacientemente
For their owners to returnA que regrese sus dueños
Forming a necklace, the sulkysFormando un collar los sulkys
Doze under the night skyDormitan bajo el sereno

In the heat of the partyEn el fragor de la fiesta
Someone sets loose some womenAlguien desbanda mujeres
Pulling from their pocketSacando de su bolsillo
Some thick firecrackersAlguna gruesa de cuetes
In the heat of the partyEn el fragor de la fiesta
Someone sets loose some womenAlguien desbanda mujeres
