Paroles et traduction Horacio Guarany - Vidala de la Copla

Vidala de la Copla

Vidala tengo una copla,
No me la vas a quitar.
Dejala que me acompañe,
Así conmigo andará.
Pa′ cuando vuelva a mi pago,
Entonces juntitos la hemos de cantar.

Vidala tengo una copla,
No me la vas a quitar.

Si le digo que sos fuego,
Te han de querer apagar
Y en tu rescoldo caliente
La ollita calentarán.
Pa' que no apaguen tus fuegos
Tal vez algún pobre me ayude a soplar.

Vidala tengo una copla,
No me la vas a quitar.

Junto al camino está caido,
Chumadito el Carnaval.
Cuando la tierra calienta
Gusto a algarroba me da
Y me hace llorar la caja
De verme tan lejos la vidalitay.

Vidala tengo una copla,
No me la vas a quitar.

Es todo lo que me queda,
Si vuelto tal vez me dan,
Pa′ cuando vuelva a mi pago,
Entonces juntitos
La hemos de cantar.

Vidala tengo una copla,
No me la vas a quitar.

Vidala of the Verse

My dear, I have a verse,
You can't take it away from me.
Let it stay with me,
So it can travel with me.
When I return to my homeland,
Then together we will sing it.

My dear, I have a verse,
You can't take it away from me.

If I tell you that you're fire,
They'll try to put you out
And warm their little pot
Over your dying embers.
So that they may not quench your flames
Perhaps some poor soul will help me blow.

My dear, I have a verse,
You can't take it away from me.

Fallen by the side of the road,
Carnival lies drunk.
When the earth grows warm
It tastes like carob to me
And my heart cries at the sound
Of my distant vidala.

My dear, I have a verse,
You can't take it away from me.

'Tis all that's left to me,
If I return, perhaps they'll give it back,
When I return to my homeland,
Then together
We will sing it.

My dear, I have a verse,
You can't take it away from me.
