El Canto Que Me Diste
Los Manseros Santiagueños
The Song You Gave Me
You saw me grow one day
With your village customs
The song you gave me
Ignited in a chacarera
It carried that message
Even to forgotten lands
With suns that my enamored guitar gives me
Coyuyo in the carob tree
And in the summer afternoons
Among mates and vidalas
Its joyful song was heard
When I remember my old man
I will never be able to forget you
Taking the chacarera
I will sing it around the world
Your emotional eyes
Accompanied my song
The verse and my feelings
Turned into tears
Now when I return
To that beloved place
The house, the eaves, the sky
Will no longer be by your side
I will live thanking you
For that sown path
With the song and guitars
That we had always dreamed of
When I remember my old man
I will never be able to forget you
Taking your chacarera around
The world I will sing
