Paroles et traduction Los Nocheros - La Cerrillana

La Cerrillana

Con la pollera yuta
Las trenzas largas te vi pasar,
Y ahí nomás a mi zaino
En el guardapatio lo hice rayar.

Desmonté del caballo
Me puse cerca pa' mosquetear.
Con el alma en un hilo,
Mi negra linda, te vi bailar.

Cómo olvidarte Cerrillos
Si por tu culpa tengo mujer.
Morena cerrillana, con alma y vida te cantaré.
Todos los carnavales
Para Cerrillos te llevaré.

Luego siguieron zambas
Bailamos juntos sin descanzar,
Entre medio 'e los cuetes
Y serpentinas del carnaval.

Miércoles de Ceniza
Enharinados nos vio pasar.
Y en ancas de mi zaino
Luego a mi rancho fuimos a dar.

La Cerrillana

With your beautiful, flowing, black skirt,
And your long braids, I saw you walk by,
And right then and there, I marked my horse,
In the paddock where I keep him tied.

I dismounted my horse,
And positioned myself close enough to get a good look at you.
My heart was pounding,
As I watched you dance, my beautiful girl.

How could I forget Cerrillos,
Since it's because of you that I have a woman?
Brunette from Cerrillos, with all my heart and soul, I'll sing to you.
Every Carnival,
I'll take you to Cerrillos.

Then the zambas started to play,
We danced together, without stopping,
Amidst the fireworks
And streamers of Carnival.

Ash Wednesday
Saw us passing by, covered in flour.
And on my horse's back,
We rode off to my ranch.
