Chacarera de los pagos

Country Dance from the Hometowns
I sing this country dance to whoever wants to sing it to me.
I sing it because I sing and because I feel like singing.
I sing it because I sing and because I feel like singing.
It's the song of my land and I won't forget it
for lights and country dances, age never ends
for lights and country dances, age never ends.
Country dance from the hometowns, zamba from my city
with my soul and my hands, I will sing to you
country dances from the ranches, source of my truth
weasels and hawks, I will sing to you.
I will sing to you.
Life in apartments
and the artificial moon,
the noises and the horns,
how hard it is to dream
the noises and the horns,
how hard it is to dream.
But dear country dance
I will never forget you
and I pray you give me one more country dance
and I pray you give me one more country dance.
Chorus
I sing this country dance to whoever wanted to sing it to me
I sing it because I sing and because I feel like singing
I sing it because I sing and because I feel like singing.
