Lyrics and translation Violeta Parra - Pedro Urdemales

Pedro Urdemales

Pedro urdemales, peyuco,
Venido de chiloé,
Se encontró con una vieja
Que bailaba trucu trucutrucu

Y al dar la vuelta el peyuco,
Se retita más atrás,
La viejita lo miraba
Con el trucu trucutrucu.

Anda pues pedro urdemales
Con tus mentiras al diablo
Y vete por la sombrita
Que por el sol trucu trucutrucu.

Pedro Urdemales

Pedro Urdemales, rascal,
Came from Chiloé,
He encountered an old woman
Who was dancing the trucu trucutrucu

And when the rascal turned around,
He stepped back,
The old woman watched him
With the trucu trucutrucu.

Go on, Pedro Urdemales,
With your lies to the devil,
And go into the shade,
Because in the sun, it's trucu trucutrucu.
