Indio(original) |
| La luz se hizo sombra |
| Y nació el indio, |
| La puna se hizo hombre |
| Y nació el indio. |
| Prisionero en tu suelo, |
| Indio cautivo, |
| Sin luz en la mirada, |
| Indio sombrío. |
| Ayer montaña, |
| Hoy sólo escombro. |
| Hierve mi entraña |
| Cuando lo nombro. |
| Serás otra vez montaña |
| Y habrá fulgor en tus ojos. |
| Tu risa oiré |
| Y feliz serás |
| Y feliz seré. |
| (translation) |
| The light became shadow |
| And the Indian was born, |
| The puna became a man |
| And the Indian was born. |
| Prisoner in your soil, |
| captive indian, |
| Without light in the look, |
| gloomy indian |
| yesterday mountain, |
| Today only rubble. |
| my insides boil |
| When I name it. |
| You will be a mountain again |
| And there will be glare in your eyes. |
| I will hear your laugh |
| and you will be happy |
| And I will be happy. |
