Lyrics of Baguala del gaucho pobre - Atahualpa Yupanqui

Baguala del gaucho pobre (original)

Alto verdeña de mi querer
no tengas penas, que yo he’i volver.
Que yo he’i volver.
Como no he de volver.
Para tu gaucho, tortilla.
Pa mi caballo, mala hoja.
Al que es pobre y mala traza
siempre le dan cualquier cosa.
He’i volver con flete gordo
Y apero de plata pura.
Pa decirle a tus parientes:
háganse á un la’o los basura.
Alto verdeña de mi querer.
No tengas penas, que yo he’i volver.
Que yo he’i volver.
Como no he de volver.
Guárdame la ausencia.
Negra, que pronto
he’i volver.
No tengas miedo, mi Niña, que pronto he’i volver.
Cuídate de tus parientes, que pronto he’i volver.
Como no he de volver.
Como no he de volver

(translation)

Alto verdeña of my love
do not have sorrows, that I have come back.
That I've come back.
How can I not go back.
For your gaucho, tortilla.
For my horse, bad leaf.
To the one who is poor and bad traces
they always give him anything.
He'i return with fat freight
And apero of pure silver.
To tell your relatives:
Get rid of the garbage.
Alto verdeña of my love.
Don't be sorry, I've come back.
That I've come back.
How can I not go back.
Save my absence.
Black, how soon
he'i come back.
Don't be afraid, my girl, I'll be back soon.
Take care of your relatives, I'll be back soon.
How can I not go back.
How can I not go back
