Lyrics
Español
Hoy quisiera retornar al suelo que nací, lejana Catamarca, que me vio partir, mientras la chura hermosa, pegadita a mí, lloraba silenciosa... Hoy que el mundo conocí y el triunfo conquisté, recuerdo entristecido el amor feliz y el vallecito lindo donde yo canté ¡la dicha de vivir!... Muy rico de ilusiones, muy pobre de experiencia, las raudas alas loco desplegué, pero fue visión lo que yo soñé... Y en mis meditaciones me dice la conciencia que al vallecito tengo que volver ¡para revivir mi ayer!... Si se viviera dos veces jamás me alejaría de donde pasó mi niñez, donde nació mi alegría. ¡Allí donde amaba, cantaba y reía!... Sueño vivir con mi amada en la nativa fronda, mirando sus ojos de sol, de una ternura tan honda que nadie ni nada de mi alma borró...

Today I would like to return to the soil where I was born, faraway Catamarca, that saw me leave, while the beautiful chura, close to me, wept silently... Today that I knew the world and the triumph I conquered, I remember saddened the happy love and the pretty little valley where I sang the joy of living!... Very rich in illusions, very poor in experience, I spread out my crazy wings, but it was vision that I dreamed of... And in my meditations my conscience tells me that I must return to the little valley to relive my yesterday!... If I were to live twice I would never move away from where my childhood was spent, where my joy was born. There where I loved, sang and laughed!... I dream of living with my beloved in the native forest, gazing into her sunny eyes, of a tenderness so deep that no one or nothing erased from my soul...
