Vamos, Mujer! (cantata a Santa Maria de Iquique)
Ruy Maurity
Let's go, Woman! (cantata to Santa Maria de Iquique)
1976
Let's go woman, let's head to the city.
Everything will be different, no need to doubt.
No need to doubt, trust, you'll see,
Because in Iquique everyone will understand.
Take my blanket woman, it will keep you warm.
Hold the little child in your arms, he won't cry.
He won't cry, trust, he'll smile.
You'll sing him a song, he'll fall asleep.
What's happening? Tell me, don't be silent anymore.
You have a long way to go
Crossing hills, let's go woman.
Let's go woman, trust, we must arrive
In the city we'll be able to see the whole sea.
They say Iquique is as big as a salt flat,
That there are many beautiful houses, you'll like them.
You'll like them, trust, as if to God,
There in the port everything will be better.
What's happening? Tell me, don't be silent anymore.
