Quiaqueñita

Today I sat down to think about my home
Proud to be from Jujuy
Today I sat down to cry for my land
Mother Earth, sun of the quebrada

Today I sat down to think about my little one
About my girl, my dog, my life
Today I sat down to sing with my heart
Maybe far, far from the mountain

Today I saw the puna in a dream
Brownish green, a vibrant hue
And sitting there, I felt the warmth
Right next to me, I cried

And I saw you, Humahuaca, so quiet
With your narrow, clear streets
Your walls, your fences, and your old houses
Your sheep, your donkeys, your goats

Oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy
Little Jujuy of my soul
Oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy
Little Jujuy of my soul

Today my eyes also got wet
When the drums and bombos played
And the erquencho in my hand strummed
And I looked at your green valleys

Today I sat down to think about my home
Ridges, puna, quebrada, and valleys
Open pampa, Humahuaca, La Quiaca
Little Jujuy of my enchanted soul

Today I saw the puna in a dream
Brownish green, a vibrant hue
And sitting there, I felt the warmth
Right next to me, my quena cried

And I saw you, Humahuaca, so quiet
With your narrow, clear streets
Your walls, your fences, and your old houses
Your sheep, your donkeys, your goats

Oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy
Little Jujuy of my soul
Oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy, oh Jujuy
Little Jujuy of my soul
