La Exiliada del Sur

I left an eye in the lakes by a casual mistake
The other stayed in Parral in a bar of drinks
I remember that much damage my soul saw as a child
Miseries and treacheries tie my thoughts
Between the waters and the wind I get lost in the distance

My right arm in Buín, stayed, dear listeners
The other in San Vicente stayed, I don't know for what purpose
My chest in Curacautín I see in a little garden
My hands in Maitencillo greet in Pelequén
My blouse in Perquilauquén picks up some little fish

My foot got tangled in San Rosendo crossing a corner
The other in Quiriquina sinks into the sea
My discontented heart beat with sorrow in Temuco
And it has cried for me in Calbuco from cold, because of frost

I go and straighten my march to the Chacabuco hill
I leave my nerves in Graneros, the blood in San Sebastián
And in the city of Chillán the calmness dropped to zero
My kidneys in Cabrero destroy a walk
And in a street in Itata my instrument broke
And I dedicate to Nacimiento a silver morning

Disembarking in Riñihue, Violeta Parra was seen
Without strings on the guitar, without leaves on the coligüe
A flock of chirigües came to give her a concert

Disembarking in Riñihue, Violeta Parra was seen
