Tocamelo Una Chacarera
Los Guaranies
Play Me a Chacarera
Why do you ask me for a zamba if you don't know how to dance them
Ask me for a chacarera, that's where you'll learn
There's only one little spot left for me under the carob tree
To see how the rooster sings if someone wants to crow
Since the patio has just been watered, they won't want to tap their feet
But they'll still cover the ranch with the dirt they'll leave
How the coyuyos sing
That's how I want to sing
How they dance over there in Santiago
I am from Sumampa
Why do you ask me for a zamba in that minor tone
Ask me for a trench chacarera in C major
Just take off your shoes and start dancing
Teach them how to dance in the lands of Salao
And why do you ask me to tell you if I've been around my hometown
I'm a true santiagueño drummer and I was raised in Loreto
How the coyuyos sing
That's how I want to sing
How they dance over there in Santiago
I am from Sumampa
