Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

No hace falta ser cantor

It's not necessary to be a singer

Hay que llevar a Entre Ríos

You have to take it to Entre Ríos

En cada latido que da el corazón

In every heartbeat that the heart gives


Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

Más que tener buena voz

More than having a good voice

Hay que sentirse orgulloso

You have to feel proud

Del suelo glorioso que Pancho pisó

Of the glorious land that Pancho stepped on


Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

Si nadie lo hace mejor

If no one does it better

Alcanza para entonarla

It's enough to sing it

La voz lastimada de algún pescador

The broken voice of some fisherman


No tenga miedo compadre

Don't be afraid, compadre

Y suelte al viento su voz

And release your voice to the wind

Que bajo el cielo entrerriano

Because under the Entre Ríos sky

No hay pájaro hermano que no sea cantor

There is no brother bird that is not a singer


Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

De esas con mucho sabor

Those with a lot of flavor

Péguele un taco a la caña

Hit the cane with your heel

Pa' que a la garganta le suba calor

So that warmth rises to the throat


Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

Si el hombre es de otra región

If the man is from another region

Tiene que amar a Entre Ríos

He has to love Entre Ríos

Igual que a su tierra como condición

Just like his land as a condition


Para cantar chamarritas

To sing chamarritas

No le hace falta señor

It doesn't need anything, sir

Más que una vieja guitarra

More than an old guitar

Y el ritmo del agua contra el botador

And the rhythm of the water against the boat


No tenga miedo compadre

Don't be afraid, compadre

Y suelte al viento su voz

And release your voice to the wind

Que bajo el cielo entrerriano

Because under the Entre Ríos sky

No hay pájaro hermano que no sea cantor

There is no brother bird that is not a singer

Que bajo el cielo entrerriano

Because under the Entre Ríos sky

No hay pájaro hermano que no sea cantor

There is no brother bird that is not a singer
