Cantares de Mi Tierra
Los Hermanos Simon
Songs of My Land
Even if my voice fails me, even if my hands tremble
I always take the guitar and sing to my countrymen
When I feel very sad I play a vidalita
I'm going to Silípica and I'm singing to the little TV
If my heart dreams of returning when I'm far from home
I take the guitar and sing the nostalgia of Santiago
Vidalas Chacareras cats zambas and hidden
They are songs from my land that have never been lost
If the joy in my chest is overflowing with pleasure
Strumming the always happy I spend the day singing
If my disappointed soul exhales sad sighs
I gently begin to sing the verses of the baguala
When I cross the Salado I remember the cachimayu
And if I go around the sweet I sing the mishqui mayu
These are songs from my land to start dancing
And end near dawn singing the vidalita
