La Boliviana
Quilapayún
Lyrics
Translation
De Bolivia vengo bajando,
From Bolivia, I come descending,
ayayay, pobre mi cholita.
Ayayay, my poor little woman.
Sabe Dios si volveré
Only God knows if I will return
a la tierra donde nací.
To the land where I was born.
Clavelitos, clavelitos
Little carnations, little carnations
envueltos en un papelito.
Wrapped in a little paper.
Corazón de piedra dura
Heart of hard stone
ojos de mantialito.
Eyes like little springs.
Ya me voy, ya me voy,
I'm already going, I'm already going,
ya me voy, ya me voy yendo.
I'm already going, I'm already going away.
Sabe Dios si volveré
Only God knows if I will return
a la tierra donde nací.
To the land where I was born.
