Doña Maria Rios

True countrywoman
Tanned by the sun
Women of that kind
I don't think there's
Anyone better

She goes around those parts
Eager to dance
And on her gentle horse
She goes to the calm
Of the Carnival

Chorus
For you
I have in my bandoneon
Doña María Ríos
My heartfelt song

She knows how to lasso
In any situation
And gather the cattle
Putting reins
On her wild one

Her gaucho blood is
In every sunrise
And through Ruiz de los Llanos
The people from Tucumán
Often see her
