El Diablo de Humahuaca
Los Huayra
The Devil of Humahuaca
when the bull that lives in the erque calls
I go to the carnival,
giving myself courage with spicy ají quitucho
to see if I am capable.
the joyful troupe goes through the ravine
and brings us back together,
oh humahuaqueña stay in my ranch,
it's not a matter of waiting.
I am the devil of humahuaca,
no one can resist my temptation,
in my quena there is a spell
for the tough-hearted.
I used to be the devil of humahuaca
I have been defeated with a flower,
in the night of your eyes
I am just the angel of good love.
how things are, the chango is coming our way
right on the dot,
do not be ashamed, do not deny the blood,
a rose has been born to you.
the joyful troupe goes through the ravine
and brings us back together,
oh humahuaqueña stay in my ranch,
it's not a matter of waiting.
