Translation of the song lyrics Carnaval - Illapu

Carnaval (original)

Evocando tus quebradas, evocando tus salares
Indio toca ya tu quena y olvida asÌ tus pesares
Hoy es tu dÌa de fiestas, hoy por ti sonreir·s
El abandono del hombre con la aloja olvidaras
De lejos se oyen las voces, la pampa danzando esta
Es que en los pueblos del norte ha empezado el carnaval
Ya se escuchan los sicuris, las cajas y las tarqueadas
El indio esta borracho para Èl ya no existe nada
Ha muerto el carnaval y lo llevan a enterrar
A esperar otro aÒo m·s, para volverse a alegrar
De nuevo rostros sombrÌos, las indias a espalda el crÌo
Cada una con sus penas con su vida y con sus lÌos

(translation)

Evoking your ravines, evoking your salt flats
Indio now play your quena and forget your sorrows
Today is your day of celebration, today for you you will smile
The abandonment of the man with the host you will forget
Voices can be heard from afar, the pampa dancing this
It is that in the towns of the north the carnival has begun
The sicuris, the boxes and the tarqueadas are already heard
The Indian is drunk for him nothing exists anymore
The carnival has died and they take it to bury
To wait another year, to be happy again
Gloomy faces again, the Indian women behind the child
Each one with her sorrows with her life and with her messes
