Lyrics and translation Inti Illimani - Tinku

Tinku

Sisi machai cuni, ñañitai,
Machai cuya nila.
Machai cuya nila, ñañitai,
Matayahuan quita.
Sisi tusi situ, ñañitai,
Matusiki situ.
Matusiki situ, ñañitai,
Eso si axi tu.
Ay tunitai tuna, ñañitai,
Tucu yucui tuna.
Tucu yucui tuna, ñañitai,
Amke tuyai tuna.

Tinku

My beloved sister, my dear,
My beloved sister's eyes.
My beloved sister's eyes, my dear,
They stole my heart away.
Your beautiful mouth, my dear,
Your beautiful mouth.
Your beautiful mouth, my dear,
I love it so much.
Oh my beloved, my dear,
My heart yearns for you.
My heart yearns for you, my dear,
I long to be with you.
