BALDERRAMA

On the edge of the canal
when the morning comes
the night comes out singing
from Balderrama's place.
The night comes out singing
from Balderrama's place.

Inside, pure trembling
the drum with the baguala
and it gets stirred up burning
making the guitar sparkle.
And it gets stirred up burning
making the guitar sparkle.

Lonely star
bud of dawn
where will we end up
if Balderrama goes out.
Where will we end up
if Balderrama goes out.

If someone starts to sing
a coachman accompanies him
and in every glass of wine
the morning star trembles.
And in every glass of wine
the morning star trembles.

Zamba of dawn
lullaby of Balderrama
crying for midnight
singing for dawn.
Crying for midnight
singing for dawn.

Lonely star...
