Cachilo Dormido - Atahualpa Yupanqui traduction en anglais

Cachilo Dormido

Cuando pasen por Santiago
Caminen sin hacer ruido
Porque en un rincón del pago
Está el Cachilo dormido

Está el Cachilo dormido
Con su ponchito de almohada
Quizá, buscando en el sueño
El alma de la vidala

El alma de la vidala
Florcita salavinera
Llegando los carnavales
Se le ha'i volver chacarera
Llegando los carnavales
Se la ha'i volver chacarera

Hay un rincón en el cielo
Donde moran los quichuistas
Donde cantan chacareras
Al llegar la tardecita

Al llegar la tardecita
Corazón estremecido
Anda el Soco tarareando
Para el Cachilo dormido

Para el Cachilo dormido
Florcita salavinera
Llegando los carnavales
Se le ha'i volver chacarera
Llegando los carnavales
Se le ha'i volver chacarera

Sleeping Cachilo

When you pass through Santiago, my love,
Walk softly, without a sound,
For in a corner of the town, my dear,
Cachilo is sleeping soundly.

Cachilo is sleeping soundly, sweetheart,
With his little poncho as a pillow,
Perhaps, searching in his dreams, my love,
For the soul of the vidala.

The soul of the vidala, my dear,
A little wildflower so free,
When carnival time arrives, sweetheart,
It will become a chacarera again.
When carnival time arrives, my love,
It will become a chacarera again.

There's a corner in heaven, my dear,
Where the Quichua people dwell,
Where they sing chacareras, sweetheart,
As evening falls.

As evening falls, my love,
With a heart full of emotion,
Soco walks humming a tune, my dear,
For sleeping Cachilo.

For sleeping Cachilo, sweetheart,
A little wildflower so free,
When carnival time arrives, my love,
It will become a chacarera again.
When carnival time arrives, my dear,
It will become a chacarera again.
