Chalana

There goes a chalana
Going far away
Sailing in the calm
Of the Paraguay river

Oh! Chalana unintentionally
You increase my pain
In these waters so serene
You're taking my love

Oh! Chalana unintentionally
You increase my pain
In these waters so serene
You're taking my love

And so she went
Didn't even say goodbye
The chalana is fading away
Around the river bend

And if she goes hurt
I know she's right
I was ungrateful, I hurt
Her gentle heart

Oh! Chalana unintentionally
You increase my pain
In these waters so serene
You're taking my love

Oh! Chalana unintentionally
You increase my pain
In these waters so serene
You're taking my love
