El Tehuelche Saco Largo
Hugo Gimenez Agúero
The Tehuelche with the Long Coat
They say he died of anguish
The Tehuelche with the Long Coat
Who was always happy
There in his mud kaú
Ay
They say he was on the floor
Of the house they gave him
Eyes looking far away
Where the path ends
Ay
Maybe to lend a hand
Someone took him to the town
Put a roof over his head and a bed
And he always slept on the ground
The Tehuelche with the Long Coat
Died missing the sky
Eyes on the path
And his heart in his town
Ay
The Tehuelche was happy
When he was the owner of the land
He never wanted to leave it
And they took him to the town
Ay
Eyes wide to the wind
Drank in the silences
That's why he left in a hurry
He who was always so slow
Ay
Maybe to lend a hand
Someone took him to the town
Put a roof over his head and a bed
And he always slept on the ground
The Tehuelche with the Long Coat
Died missing the sky
Eyes on the path
And his heart in his town
Ay
