Carnavalito Quebradeño
Camerata Vocale
Carnavalito from Quebrada
They call me from Quebrada
because I was born in the ravine
carnavalito, of my love,
let the whole circle come to dance.
Because I am like my hills
tanned by the frosts
carnavalito, of my love,
let the whole circle come to dance.
Chorus
Find a yaraví
among charangos it will be forgotten
echoes of a deep feeling
drums will cheerfully brighten
Humming
carnavalito, of my love,
let the whole circle come to dance.
The paths of the summits
leading me through the chumbes
carnavalito, of my love,
let the whole circle come to dance.
When night reaches me
I make a bonfire wherever I am
carnavalito, of my love,
let the whole circle come to dance.
