Si De Cantar Se Trata - Los Chalchaleros Übersetzung ins Englische

Si De Cantar Se Trata

Con vitillo y con machaco
Yo aprendí la chacarera
La cantaba todo el día
Allá en salta campo afuera

Andando por Payogasta
De changuito ya sabía
Que aunque nos llenen de gringos
A ellos no los cambiaría

Me rodeaban las guitarras
Bombos y trajes de gaucho
Pucha que lindo les quedan
A todos estos paisanos

Si ya tenés veinte años
Y no sabes decidirte
Venite para el folklore
No hace falta que te invite

Me duele si del folklore
Dicen que es cosa de viejo
Si sos joven prométeme
No aflojarle ni un momento

Si cantando en las reuniones
Por ahí alguno se ríe
No te aflijas, perdónalo
No conoce sus raíces

Me parece haber oído
Decir que se está acabando
Con tu mano y con la mía
Vamos a seguir tirando

Si seguís con veinte años
Afinando una guitarra
Llévate todo el folklore
Por donde quiera que vayas

If It's About Singing

With calf and with machaco
I learned the chacarera
I sang it all day long
There in Salta, out in the countryside

Walking through Payogasta
As a little boy I already knew
That even if they fill us with foreigners
I wouldn't trade them for them, my love

I was surrounded by guitars
Drums and gaucho outfits
How beautiful they look on them
On all these countrymen, my dear

If you're already twenty years old
And you don't know what to decide
Come to folklore, sweetheart
You don't need me to invite you

It hurts me if they say about folklore
That it's an old man's thing
If you're young, promise me, my love
Not to let go of it for a moment

If singing in gatherings
Someone laughs around
Don't worry, forgive him, darling
He doesn't know his roots

I think I heard
Someone say it's ending
With your hand and mine, my love
We will keep pulling

If you're still twenty years old
Tuning a guitar
Take all the folklore with you, sweetheart
Wherever you go
