Chamamé

Come to me, little faceVentea tu cara pequeña
In the morning breezeEn la brisa del alba
The flower of forgetfulness,La flor del olvido,
Coastal reed legsPatitas de junco costero
Deer-like hairPelito de ciervo
Come, I love you.Vení que te quiero.

It's sad to think of you shiveringEs triste pensarte aterido
Little star eyesOjitos de estrella
That die in the riverQue muere en el río
We want to save you, buddyQueremos salvarte chamigo
Kids from the countrysideGurises* del pago.
Offer him shelter!¡ofrézcanle abrigo!

Big foxAguará guazú*
Light of the grasslandLuz del pajonal
Winter sun coldSol del invierno frío
Big foxAguará guazú
Honey jaguarChe yaguá* de miel
I want to give you shelterQuiero darte abrigo.
Virgin of ItatíVirgen de itatí
Bless him, angáBendecile angá*
He's a CorrentinoEs un correntino
Who has no peaceQue no tiene paz
Big foxAguará guazú
I want to give you a nest!¡quiero darte un nido!
