Coplas Del Gaucho Solo

With my tuned guitar, I’m gonna make some pretty things
The feeling invites me to sing in harmony
With it in my arms, like it’s my love
The songs serve as a guarantee, to the beat of the bass strings
Bouncing inspirations from the chest of this singer

My thoughts aren’t short when I start to rhyme
Don’t try to face me, 'cause I’ve got a heart of stone
When I strike back, I don’t break, I just get tougher
I didn’t come into this world in a rush, and there are no barriers in my tongue
If I sing this way, it’s God’s will, I swear!

I was raised in the countryside, listening to the tero-tero
Tanning leather in the winter mornings
I wanted to make my own way, but I can’t even respond
All I have left is to sing to the stars and the sky
Making the hair stand up on those who live in solitude

I’m stepping out slowly to my ranch without fear
I carry with me a comfort: the night got shorter!
And if my verse doesn’t explain what the heart feels
It holds the emotion of those who live in the shadows
By the fires, sharing thoughts with their simple song
