Paroles et traduction Leon Gieco - Maturana

Maturana

El que canta es Maturana
Chileno de nacimiento
Anda rodando la tierra
Con toda su tierra dentro
Andando por esos montes
En Salta se a vuelto hachero
Si va a voltear un quebracho
Su sangre llora primero
Chilenito ay, desterrado
En el vino que lo duerme
Dormido llora su pago
Que será de este hacherito
De ese de que no ha sido nada
Lo irán cantando los vinos
Que ese chileno tomaba
Tal vez el carbón se acuerde
Del hombre que lo quemaba
Y que en el humo iba a cielo
Machadito Maturana

Maturana

The one who sings is Maturana
Chilean by birth
He roams the earth
With all his land inside
Walking through those mountains
In Salta he became a woodcutter
If he's going to cut down a quebracho
His blood weeps first
Little Chilean, banished
In the wine that puts him to sleep
Asleep he cries for his homeland
What will become of this woodcutter
Of him who has been nothing
They will sing it the wines
That this Chilean drank
Perhaps the coal will remember
The man who burned it
And who soared into the sky in the smoke
Whetted Maturana
