Lyrics

Translation

Que solo me voy quedando, mi viejo tunal,

That I am left alone, my old tunal,

Oyendo cantar al río, para el carnaval.

Hearing the river sing for the carnival.


Me acompaña la esperanza en la soledad,

Hope accompanies me in loneliness,

Cuando silva el huairamuyoj por el salitral.

When the huairamuyoj whistles through the salitral.


Árbol fuiste bien coposo,

You were a well-laden tree,

Pobre corazón.

Poor heart.

Árbol que quedó sin hojas,

Tree that remained without leaves,

Sin nidos, ni amor.

Without nests, nor love.


Dile, dile chacarera, a esa flor azul

Tell, tell chacarera, to that blue flower

Que de noche yo la busco por la cruz del sur.

That at night I look for it by the Southern Cross.


Esa pena enamorada, pena sin cesar,

That enamored sorrow, sorrow without ceasing,

Buscando volverse copla, pa' hacerme llorar.

Seeking to become a verse, to make me cry.


Amalhaya con la suerte que a mí me ha tocao.

Curse with the luck that has befallen me,

Cantar por cantar, cantando, sin ser escuchao.

Singing just to sing, singing, unheard.


Cuando recuerdo sus ojos, de dulce mirar,

When I remember her eyes, with a sweet gaze,

Me acomodo con mi perro solito a pitar.

I settle with my lonely dog to whistle.
