Lyrics
Español
Yo soy la morocha, la más agraciada, la más renombrada de esta población. Soy la que al paisano muy de madrugada brinda un cimarrón. Yo, con dulce acento, junto a mi ranchito, canto un estilito con tierna pasión, mientras que mi dueño sale al trotecito en su redomón. Soy la morocha argentina, la que no siente pesares y alegre pasa la vida con sus cantares. Soy la gentil compañera del noble gaucho porteño, la que conserva el cariño para su dueño. Yo soy la morocha de mirar ardiente, la que en su alma siente el fuego de amor. Soy la que al criollito más noble y valiente ama con ardor. En mi amado rancho, bajo la enramada, en noche plateada, con dulce emoción, le canto al pampero, a mi patria amada y a mi fiel amor. Soy la morocha argentina, la que no siente pesares y alegre pasa la vida con sus cantares. Soy la gentil compañera del noble gaucho porteño, la que conserva el cariño para su dueño.
English · machine translation
I am the brunette, the most graceful, the most renowned of this town. I am the one who very early in the morning a cimarrón offers. I, with a sweet accent next to my little ranch, I sing a little style with tender passion, while my owner goes out at a trot on his redomón. I am the Argentine brunette, the one who feels no regrets and joyfully spends her life with her songs. I am the gentle companion of the noble gaucho from Buenos Aires, the one who preserves the affection for its owner. I am the brunette with an ardent gaze, the one who feels in her soul the fire of love. I am the one who to the criollito noblest and bravest loves with ardor. In my beloved ranch, under the arbor, on a silver night, with sweet emotion, I sing to the pampero, to my beloved homeland and to my faithful love. I am the Argentine brunette, the one who feels no sorrows and joyfully spends her life with her songs. I am the gentle companion of the noble gaucho from Buenos Aires, the one who preserves the affection for its owner.
