Lyrics

Translation

Si la cintura es un junco

If the waist is slender

Y la boca es colorada

And the mouth is rosy

Si son los ojos retintos

If the eyes are tinged

Esa moza es tucumana

That girl is from Tucumán


Si es dulce como esa niña

If she's sweet like that girl

Y airosa cuando la bailan

And graceful when they dance her

Si te gana el corazón

If she wins your heart

Esa zamba es tucumana

That zamba is from Tucumán


Y si la moza y la zamba llegan a ser tucumanas

And if the girl and the zamba happen to be from Tucumán

Ahogate en agua bendita que ya ni el diablo te salva

Drown yourself in holy water because not even the devil can save you


Si es redondita y jugosa

If she's round and juicy

Lo mismo que una naranja

Just like an orange

Si es noche cerrada el pelo

If her hair is as dark as a closed night

Esa moza es tucumana

That girl is from Tucumán


Si a las sombras del pañuelo

If, in the shadows of her handkerchief

Le va anudando distancias

She's tying distances

Si te consuela y te miente

If she consoles you and lies to you

Esa zamba es tucumana

That zamba is from Tucumán
