La Exiliada Del Sur

I left an eye in the lakes
Due to a casual mistake
The other one stayed in Parral
In a tavern of drinks
I remember that a lot of damage
As a child, it saw my soul
Miseries and treacheries
Tie my thoughts
Between the waters and the wind
I get lost in the distance

My right arm in Buin
Remained, dear listeners
The other one in San Vicente
Remained, I don't know for what purpose
My chest in Curacautín
I see it in a little garden
My hands, in Maitencillo
Greet in Pelequén
My blouse in Perquilauquén
Gathers some little fish

It got tangled in San Rosendo
One foot while crossing a corner
The other one in Quiriquina
Sinks into the sea
My discontented heart
Beat with sorrow in Temuco
And cried for me in Calbuco
From the cold, due to frost
I go and straighten my path
To the slope of Chacabuco

I leave my nerves in Graneros
The blood in San Sebastián
And in the city of Chillán
The calmness dropped to zero
My kidneys in Cabrero
Destroy a walk
And in a street of Itata
The instrument broke on me
And I head to Nacimiento
One silver morning

Disembarking in Riñihue
Violeta Parra was seen
Without strings on the guitar
Without leaves on the coligüe
A band of chirigües
Came to give her a concert
Disembarking in Riñihue
Violeta Parra was seen
Disembarking in Riñihue
Violeta Parra was seen
