Luna Vallista
Jorge Rojas
Valley Moon
Moon of the valleys, the companion of
loneliness,
your adobe heart beats in Seclantás.
Your adobe and baguala heart beats in
Seclantás.
Moon in Cafayate, the whole night, you
usually
stay,
alone, standing guard in the medanal,
alone, standing guard of a star, in the
medanal.
Moon, little Vallista moon, lit lantern,
silence, song.
The rose of a lover,
who gave you, the light of the traveler, who
travels
in your heart.
Moon of windmills, your singing side
unravels
couplets.
Nightfall zamba, love accomplice.
Nightfall Vallista zamba, love
accomplice.
Moon of Angastaco, bleeds the sun in the
summer
morning.
Girl, early woman, dies at dawn,
girl, proud early woman, dies at
dawn.
