Текст и перевод песни Mercedes Sosa - Manuela la Tucumana

Manuela la Tucumana

No duerme Buenos Aires
Las mechas arden,
Las mechas arden
Cuarenta mil valientes
Sólo un cobarde,
Sólo un cobarde
Con un fusil de chispas
Y muchas ganas,
Y muchas ganas
Peleó doña Manuela
La tucumana,
La tucumana
Este triunfo ganaron
Nuestras mujeres,
Nuestras mujeres
Las hembras han peleado
Como varones,
Como varones
Las ollas en sus manos
Fueron cañones,
Fueron cañones
Malaya los que vengan
Como enemigos,
Como enemigos
Habremos de correrlos
Como a estos gringos,
Como a estos gringos
Este triunfo ganaron
Nuestras mujeres,
Nuestras mujeres

Manuela the Woman from Tucuman

Buenos Aires doesn't sleep
The wicks burn,
The wicks burn
Forty thousand brave ones
Only a coward,
Only a coward
With a flintlock gun
And a lot of desire,
And a lot of desire
Doña Manuela fought
The woman from Tucuman,
The woman from Tucuman
This triumph was won
By our women,
By our women
The women have fought
Like men,
Like men
The pots in their hands
Were cannons,
Were cannons
Woe to those who come
As enemies,
As enemies
We will have to chase them away
Like these gringos,
Like these gringos
This triumph was won
By our women,
By our women
