Altiplano indio - Illapu

Canto con todo mi corazón

Al altiplano de mi nación

Al indio hermano en su soledad

Y a la mujer que debe luchar

Para tu tristeza mitigar

Para con él ir a cosechar

Para volver al atardecer

Con la esperanza de un renacer

Lara lara lai lai la cantando

Mi voz te llevará

Lara lara lai lai la bailando

Nunca te han de olvidar

Pero un día te alegrarás

Será cuando venga el carnaval

Y en vez de partir a cosechar

Con tu chola feliz bailarás

Y tras alzar tu vaso y brindar

Pensarás que abandonado estás

Y mi voz con alma gritará

Que en mi canto por siempre estarás

Lara lara lai lai la cantando

Mi voz te llevará

Lara lara lai lai la bailando

Nunca te han de olvidar

I sing with all my heart

To the plateau of my nation

To the Indian brother in his solitude

And to the woman who must fight

To mitigate your sadness

To go with him to reap

To return at sunset

Hoping for a rebirth

Lara lara lai lai la singing

my voice will take you

Lara lara lai lai la dancing

They will never forget you

But one day you'll be glad

It will be when the carnival comes

And instead of going to harvest

With your happy chola you will dance

And after raising your glass and toasting

You will think that you are abandoned

And my soulful voice will scream

That in my song you will always be

Lara lara lai lai la singing

my voice will take you

Lara lara lai lai la dancing

They will never forget you
