Campanitas

(zamba song)

In a small town in Salta
The people are dancing.
With chicha and goat feet,
They will dance until dawn;
While a poor young man,
Sings this humble zamba.

The beautiful girl is getting married,
From the ranch, the hawk,
With a very rich townsman,
Who came from Tucumán;
While a poor young man,
Sings this humble zamba.

Seeing his lost love,
He mounted his chestnut horse.
He tied the guitar to the reins,
Never to return again.
While he was moving away,
Singing this humble zamba.

Little bells of my town,
That are ringing; ringing they are.
