El Carretero

Along the path of my place
A cheerful cart driver passed by
With his heartfelt songs
And very joyful guajira he sang

I'm going to the ferry (bam bam)
To unload the cart (bam bam)
I'm going to the ferry (bam bam)
To unload the cart (bam bam)
To fulfill the goal (bam bam)
Of my little work

On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain

I work tirelessly (bam bam)
To be able to get married (bam bam)
I work tirelessly (bam bam)
To be able to get married (bam bam)
And if I achieve it (bam bam)
I'll be a happy guajiro

On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain

I am a guajiro and cart driver (bam bam)
And I live well in the countryside (bam bam)
I am a guajiro and cart driver (bam bam)
And I live well in the countryside (bam bam)
Because the countryside is the Eden
Most beautiful in the whole world

On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain
On horseback we go to the mountain

Clear the mountain, cultivate the plain
Harvest the fruit of your sweat
Clear the mountain, cultivate the plain
Harvest the fruit of your sweat
