Evocación del Gaucho
Los Trovadores de Cuyo
Evocation of the Gaucho
The gauchos are gone, those who were gauchos in body and soul
Who knew how to sing in good times and knew how to suffer in bad times
The gauchos are gone, those who rooted forever in the pampas
And were strong to sing in my land of the blessed land, the homeland
Gauchos who have left and will not return, gauchos who have died, where will they go?
In the homeland that saw them pass by, strong as a stake, I nail my song
The gauchos are gone, those who were only bravery and nostalgia
Who had the body of the earth and in their souls the tremor of vidalas
Progress swept away their lives, but in the homeland remains
The infernal gallop of their horses and the warmth of their tender guitars
Gauchos who have left and will not return, gauchos who have died, where will they go?
In the homeland that saw them pass by, strong as a stake, I nail my song
Gauchos who have left and will not return, gauchos who have died, where will they go?
In the homeland that saw them pass by, strong as a stake, I nail my song
