Mi Nostalgia

Maracaibo beloved land since I left you
Every moment I long for you, I spend my time thinking of you
And in me hope vibrates that I will return to you
And that's why I spend my time singing always to forget

December returned, lights partying and the wind plays singing gaitas
And this nostalgia that kills my soul fulfills my longing to return
I go to meet a gaitero bard who arrived yesterday from my old home
Tell me about Maracaibo, (tell me about Maracaibo) sing a gaita gaitero
Sing because I want, dear friend, to sing with you to not cry

Another year dies and I am distant from my old and my home
What a heartbreaking pain gnaws at my soul without rest
And a delirious longing to see you, my hometown
Haunt me every moment and like a child I burst into tears

Maracaibo if perhaps I cannot return to you
Your image in my lap will remain eternal my old home
And on the threshold of my tired sunset of wandering
I turn my arms into wings and I will come to your ground
