Cancion De Cuna Costera
Juan Carlos Baglietto
Coastal Lullaby
Calm night over the river
dream work and love
there goes the weathered fisherman
picking up the fishing line.
There in the ranch the mother
rocks with tender emotion
a little willow cradle
singing this song.
Coastal boy, fall asleep
costal boy, fall asleep.
If my love falls asleep
I will give him ceibo sandals
snail necklace snail necklace.
The child has already fallen asleep
the moon came out to watch
swinging in the waters
through the reedbed
The breeze plays and the song
seems to come and go
the dark echo fades
along the Paraná river.
Coastal boy, fall asleep
costal boy, fall asleep.
Sleep, sleep my love
growing up by the river, my sky
will be a good fisherman will be a good fisherman
