If the hawk could eat
It would eat, like you eat the cattle
If the hawk could eat
It would eat like you eat the cattle
I would have already eaten a red hawk

Hawk, tweet, tweet
Hawk, flap, flap
Hawk, tweet, tweet
Hawk, flap, flap

Cattle herder of the Arauca River
From Arauca, take me to the other side
Cattle herder of the Arauca River
From Arauca, take me to the other side
Because a red hawk is chasing me down

On the cliffs of Apures
Oh, Apures, a hawk was sighing
On the cliffs of Apures
Oh, Apures, a hawk was sighing
And in the sigh, it said: Girls from Camagüey
