Luna Tucumana

Yo no le canto a la lunaporque alumbra y nada mas,le canto porque ella sabede mi largo caminar.

Ay lunita tucumanatamborcito calchaquí,compañera de los gauchosen las sendas de Tafí.

Perdida en las cerrazonesquien sabe viditapor donde andarémas, cuando salga la luna,cantaré, cantaré.A mi Tucumán queridocantaré, cantaré, cantaré.

Con esperanza o con penaen los campos de Acheralyo he visto a la luna buenabesando el cañaveral.

En algo nos parecemosluna de la soledad:yo voy andando y cantandoque es mi modo de alumbrar.

Moon of Tucuman

I don't sing to the moonbecause it just shines,I sing to it because it knowsabout my long walk.

Oh moon of TucumanCalchaquian little drum,partner of the gauchosin the Tafí paths.

Lost in the bloody-mindednesswho knows viditawhere I'll be goingbut, when the moon rises,I'll sing, I'll sing.to my beloved TucumánI'll sing, I'll sing, I'll sing.

With hope or with sorrowat the Acheral fieldsI've seen the good moonkissing the reedbed.

In something we look alikemoon of the loneliness:I go walking and singingwhich is my way of illuminating.
