Paroles et traduction Los Carabajal - La Flor Azul

La Flor Azul

La Flor Azul
Mercedes Sosa
Que solo me voy quedando
Mi viejo tunal
Oyendo cantar al río
Para el carnaval.
Me acompaña la esperanza
En la soledad
Cuando silva el huairamuyoj
Por el salitral.
Arbol fuiste bien coposo,
Pobre corazón
árbol que quedo sin hojas
Sin nidos, ni amor.
Dile, dile chacarera
A esa flor azul
Que de noche yo la busco
Por la cruz del sur.
Esa pena enamorada
Pena sin cesar
Buscando volverse copla
Pa′ hacerme llorar.
Amalhaya con la suerte
Que a mi me ha tocao
Cantar por cantar, cantando
Sin ser escuchao.
Cuando recuerdo sus ojos
De dulce mirar,
Me acomodo con mi perro
Solito a pitar.
Dile, dile chacarera
A esa flor azul
Que de noche yo la busco
Por la cruz del sur.

The Blue Flower

The Blue Flower
Mercedes Sosa
That only I'm staying
My old tunal
Listening to the river sing
For the carnival.
Hope accompanies me
In the solitude
When the huairamuyoj whistles
Through the salt flats.
You were once a very leafy tree,
Poor heart
A tree that was left without leaves
Without nests, or love.
Tell me, tell me, chacarera
To that blue flower
That at night I look for her
By the Southern Cross.
That lovesick sorrow
Unceasing sorrow
Seeking to become a song
To make me weep.
May bad luck befall
The fate that has touched me
To sing for the sake of singing, singing
Without being heard.
When I remember her eyes
Of sweet gaze,
I settle down with my dog
All alone to smoke.
Tell me, tell me, chacarera
To that blue flower
That at night I look for her
By the Southern Cross.
