La Sachapera

My good girl
swinging the skirt
she dances the most graceful
Santiago brunette.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

Sweet fruit of my lands
country girl from Sabagasta
mouth of syrup and prickly pear
little juice of sachapera.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

It's a pleasure to walk through the hills
when the night awakens
kissing the carob trees
with its drizzle of stars.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

In Santiago del Estero
the Salamanca awaits me
and the sonko I want to leave
to sing to my land.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

Listen well my good girl
you have lit a fire
with the fire of your eyes
my love is dry firewood.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

For the time of the arropiada
there is an enchanting moon
that in the middle of the vidalas
singing verses remains.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.

With carob flour
I will sweeten the sorrows
that for being in love
move following closely.
With the double chacarera
all sorrows are healed.
