Lyrics
Translation
Por el camino del sitio mio
On the path of my place
Un carretero alegre paso
A cheerful carter passed by
Con su tonada que es muy guajira
With his very rural tune
Y sentida alegre canto
And a heartfelt joyful song
Me llevo al transbordador
He took me to the ferry
A descargar la carreta
To unload the cart
Me llevo al transbordador
He took me to the ferry
A descargar la carreta
To unload the cart
Para cumplir una meta
To fulfill a goal
De mi gloriosa labor
