Argentina Que Canta
Los Chalchaleros
Argentina That Sings
(zamba)
The noble root of singing
to sing to the Motherland
may no one harm its name
or spill its wisdom.
In every corner of the air,
in every corner of the soul
can be said in glory
to the whole race.
Under the blue and white sky
its flag was born to fly
and with a shout in the wind
its independence flutters.
They wave in the wheat fields
with their heroic deeds
the children who gave everything
of their blood to the Motherland.
A river of verses
deep inside the guitars
a furrow of peace in the land
Argentina that sings.
