La Parecida
Los Hermanos Toledo
The Resemblance
I come from burnt mountain
That I left for a favor
I stayed like ten days
What a beautiful place it had been
I got involved with a girl
Thinking she loved me
But I had a disappointment
Because the ungrateful one lied
Back in my place they rejoice
When a guitar plays
The countrymen settle in
As they are looking for fun
Singing a chacarera
Beating the legüero drum
It feels like I'm at a party
In Santiago del Estero
Come closer to my sleepless nights
I keep waiting for you
Faithful and firm in my love
Don't deceive it
And if I have any sorrow
It's the mournful strings
But how happy they sound
If I sing to my good girl
When I sing some verses
To sing chacareras
A young man in love
Goes out to find a partner
Singing a chacarera
Beating the legüero drum
It feels like I'm at a party
In Santiago del Estero
