Lamento Mataco

Pilgrim on the Bermejo, I'm leaving now, oh! Oh! Oh!
All alone in its waters
Not knowing where I am, oh! Oh! Oh!

One afternoon I left the mill, oh! Oh! Oh!
Chasing after my beloved
Whom my river took away

Crazy river, treacherous
You left me without love, oh! Oh! Oh!
When I sleep on my boat
I want you to take me away

The coke and the booze are all gone, oh! Oh! Oh!
I don't care about life anymore
God will take me to you

Worn out and defeated by pain, oh! Oh! Oh!
Wait for me, my girl
For the Bermejo has beaten me

Crazy river, treacherous
You left me without love, oh! Oh! Oh!
When I sleep on my boat
I want you to take me away
When I sleep on my boat
I want you to take me away, oh! Oh! Oh!
