La Martin Guemes (Chacarera)

There goes that Martin Guemes, with a full and flowery beard
With his infernal gauchos, defending the border

That brave Martin Guemes, in Salta will be
He tells the maturrango', they shall not pass

With his frontier gauchos, he guarded the North
He drove the Spaniards crazy when he attacked

Go away, Mr. Pezuelas, if you want to invade
For we Salteños will know how to win or die

Chacarera, chacarera of freedom
The maturrango' are leaving, how happy it makes me

If Mr. Lacerna dares, he may see
Men, boys, and women fulfilling their duty

Because Guemes to those who seek to invade
With the rigor of gaucho warfare, he makes them retreat

We don't want the queen or the king to rule us
We are free, and we have the homeland as our law

Chacarera, chacarera of freedom
The maturrango' are leaving, how happy it makes me
