Lyrics

Translation

Si me voy, volveré hecho sombra dolido otra vez

If I go, I will return, a hurt shadow once again

La tierra por dentro

The land from within

De tanto cantarla

From singing it so much

Me quema y mi boca

It burns me, and my mouth

Quiere florecer

Wants to bloom


Yo se que, me vera

I know that it will see me

Hombre solo sentido llorar

A lonely man felt like crying

Porque catamarca

Because Catamarca

Me crece en la sangre

Grows in my blood

Cómo crece el río

Like the river grows

Desde el arenal

From the sandy ground


Tejedora belenista

Weaver of Belén

Telar en flor

Loom in bloom

Hila con hilos de Luna

Spinning with threads of the moon

La pena con la canción

Sorrow with the song

Agüita de olvidó bebo de sus manos

Little water of forgetting, I drink from your hands

Ardidas al fuego de mi corazón

Burning in the fire of my heart


Hombre que, por andar

A man who, in walking

Llena su alma con la soledad

Fills his soul with loneliness

Siente a catamarca

Feels Catamarca

Y sus viejos rastrojos

And its old stubble

La canta, la nombra

He sings it, he names it

Para no llorar

So as not to cry


Mi belén, no hay adiós

My Belén, there is no farewell

Es el tiempo de azul vendimial

It's the time of the vendimial blue

Por dónde me vaya

Wherever I go

Me sigue mi zamba

My zamba follows me

Y en su pañuelito

And in its little handkerchief

Florece un nogal

A walnut tree blossoms
