Arauco (original)Arauco (translation)
Arauco tiene una pena Arauco has a penalty
Que no la puedo callar I can't shut her up
Son injusticias de siglos They are injustices of centuries
Que todos ven aplicar That all see apply
Nadie le ha puesto remedio No one has fixed it
Pudiéndolo remediar being able to remedy it
Levántate, huenchullán Get up, huenchullán
Un día llega de lejos One day he comes from afar
Huescufe conquistador Conqueror huescufe
Buscando montañas de oro Looking for mountains of gold
Que el indio nunca buscó That the Indian never sought
Al indio le basta el oro Gold is enough for the Indian
Que le relumbra del sol That he shines from the sun
Levántate, curimón Get up, curimón
Entonces corre la sangre Then the blood runs
No sabe el indio qué hacer The Indian does not know what to do
Le van a quitar su tierra They are going to take away your land
La tiene que defender He has to defend her
El indio se cae muerto The Indian drops dead
Y el afuerino de pie And the outsider standing
Levántate, manquilef Get up, manquilef
Adónde se fue lautaro where did he go lautaro
Perdido en el cielo azul Lost in the blue sky
Y el alma de galvarino And the soul of Galvarino
Se la llevó el viento sur The south wind blew it away
Por eso pasan llorando That's why they cry
Los cueros de su kultrún The hides of his kultrún
Levántate, pues, callfull Get up, then, callfull
Del año mil cuatrocientos of the year one thousand four hundred
Que el indio afligido está That the afflicted Indian is
A la sombra de su ruca In the shadow of his ruca
Lo pueden ver lloriquear They can see him whining
Totora de cinco siglos Totora of five centuries
Nunca se habrá de secar will never dry
Levántate, callupán Get up, callupán
Arauco tiene una pena Arauco has a penalty
Más negra que su chamal Blacker than his chamal
Ya no son los españoles They are no longer the Spanish
Los que les hacen llorar the ones that make them cry
Hoy son los propios chilenos Today it is the Chileans themselves
Los que les quitan su pan Those who take away their bread
Levántate, pailahuán Get up, pailahuan
Ya rugen las votaciones Voting is already raging
Se escuchan por no dejar They listen for not leaving
Pero el quejido del indio But the Indian's moan
¿por qué no se escuchará? why won't it be heard?
Aunque resuene en la tumba Though it resounds in the grave
La voz de caupolicán The voice of caupolicán
Levántate, huenchullánGet up, huenchullán
