Lyrics

Translation

Por el camino del monte

Through the path of the mountain

Vuelvo a mi pago otra vez

I return to my homeland once again

Para contarle a los cerros

To tell the hills

Toditas las penas que lejos passe

All the sorrows I've experienced far away


No olvida su patria chica

He who knows how to love

Aquel que sabe querer

Does not forget his small homeland

Es que la tierra nos llama

It's because the land calls us

Y adentro del alma nos grita volver

And deep in the soul, it shouts for us to return


Bien haiga mi pago lindo

Hail to my beautiful homeland

Tu sombra vengo a buscar

I come to seek your shade

Para cantar en la noche

To sing in the night

Vidalas y zambas de mi Tucumán

Vidalas and zambas from my Tucumán


Arenas de Chicligasta

Arenas of Chicligasta

Que cosas me hacen pensar

What things make me think

A tiempos cuando pasaba

Of times when I passed by

Cantando vidalas por ese arenal

Singing vidalas through that sandy place


Camino a Tafí del Valle

On the way to Tafí del Valle

Las veces que lo cruce

The times I crossed it

Mientras soltaba su copla

While releasing his couplet

El cumpa amaicheño que nunca olvide

The dear Amaicha companion that I never forget


Bien haiga mi pago lindo

Hail to my beautiful homeland

Tu sombra vengo a buscar

I come to seek your shade

Para cantar en la noche

To sing in the night

Vidalas y zambas de mi Tucumán

Vidalas and zambas from my Tucumán
