La Montaraza
Atahualpa Yupanqui
The Wild One
Brother with the thorn bushes
I live in the woods, dove!
(Where the wind gets hurt
With the thorns of the garabatal)
When the night is dark
Dogs roam near the pen
(Surely it's a wild puma
Roaming close by)
Guitar give me your accent
I give you my song, I'm a wild one
(Rough is my lumberjack hand
But it's just for the job)
Behind the tall molle trees
Where no one wants to go
(The mother of the woods lives
In Tata Zupay's salamanca)
Last night through the ravine
Back to my ranch, dove!
(The moon recited a verse to me
Feeling sorry for my loneliness)
Guitar give me your accent
I give you my song, I'm a wild one
(Rough is my lumberjack hand
But it's just for the job)
