Chacarera Del Chacho
Los Fronterizos
Chacho's Chacarera
Don Peñaloza was born in La Rioja
From a young age, with his spear
He went to fight
Chacho, laralay lara!
The wild and fierce montonera
Made him a brave and wild leader
Chacho, laralay, lara!
Chacho had blue eyes
And a woman who fought by his side
At his level
Blood cry: his raised arm
Was the motto of
National rebellion
The square of Olta
Saw his head raised
On a military pike
Chacho, laralay lara!
And they buried him
Without care, next to his star
In that stony sky
Chacho, laralay, lara!
They say in Huaco that he appears
Bloody on the road
Of Loyalty
Those who killed him never understood
That his presence among the gauchos
Was immortal
