Ay Agüita de mi Tierra
Los Huasos Quincheros
Oh Water of my Land
SPOKEN
Its monotonous march stops the cart
and in the gloomy hours when the sun is setting,
the carter sings these sorrowful verses,
to his ungrateful woman who ignored his love.
SUNG
Oh water of my land,
that flows clean and serene!,
Oh water of my land,
that flows clean and serene!,
in it are always reflected,
the eyes of my dark-skinned girl.
Oh water of my land,
that flows clean and serene!
Music. (Guitar)
If one day I could see myself,
in the depths of your eyes.
If one day I could see myself,
in the depths of your eyes.
The water of my land,
would be envious,
if one day I could see myself,
in the depths of your eyes.
Music. (Guitar)
SPOKEN
The carter finishes his lament at night,
while the oxen walk again slowly.
SUNG
Oh water of my land
that flows clean and serene!
