Negra Chacarera

From your sweetness, I
Know how to savor and turn into a bird
Wandering through the hills
Feeling the wind of an old sunset

Bitter loneliness
Vast quebracho forests of the past
Wild silence
Is fading away in my Santiago

Kakuy breaks the peace
With its cry lost in time
By the riverbank
Close to Villa Loreto
Black chacarera
Enchantment of this land and charm
Of an ancient magic
Burning in the guitars and the song

The jungle is bare
From the heat that the siesta keeps
When it walks barefoot
Feeling the devil among the leaves

Seven prayers go
To the queen of the chacarera
Patron of the place
With devotion, they dance and pray for you

Lunar revelation
That path has guided my return
It shook my soul
The voice of the north inside my chest
Black chacarera
Enchantment of this land and charm
Of an ancient magic
Burning in the guitars and the song
