El Huancar

THE HUANCAR (NORTHERN CUECA)

E.Cabeza

Where you see
that white sandy area
there in that huancar
the carnival is born and dies. Repeat

You will be singing
in the circle maybe
the verses of my land
that one afternoon I sang.

Chorus
From the puna I am
wherever I go
I sing to abrapampa
I remember my homeland. Repeat

If I return again
to my old huancar
the flutes and drums
will want to see us dance. Repeat

Why won't your love from yesterday
be there
and in the white sands
another love will have died.
