La de Bermejo

Oh Bermejo, brother river
Companion of my days
Of my long solitudes
Of my scorching time
I bring the sun on your shores
And the heart painted of your land

If the backwater takes away
The anxieties and sorrows
Through Orán or through La Quena
Goes my fisherman's dream
I release my rigging to the air
And in your reflection the luck of both

Don't leave me without your night
Of dawn guitar
That until the sun of a new day
I want to leave you my verses and my voice
And be the new course of your path
Where destiny takes me as a singer

Holy bordering father
Of the grateful passerby
Who has come into your waters
To find an illusion
For what he has never had
For what he only found in your arms

Blooming lapachares
Scenting your memory
A zamba without a handkerchief
A farewell without goodbye
And the kisses without return
Under the moon of that first love

Don't leave me without your night
Of dawn guitar
That until the sun of a new day
I want to leave you my verses and my voice
And be the new course of your path
Where destiny takes me as a singer
