Original text with translation
Mercedes Sosa, Ariel Ramírez, Tito Francia
Yo no le canto a la luna
porque alumbra y nada mas…
le canto porque ella sabe
de mi largo caminar.
Ay lunita tucumana
tamborcito calchaqui…
compañera de los gauchos
en las sendas de Tafi.
Perdido en las cerrazones
quien sabe vidita por donde andare'…
mas cuando salga la luna,
cantare', cantare'…
a mi tucuman querido,
cantare' cantare' cantare'.
Con esperanza o con pena,
en los campos de Acheral,
yo he visto la luna buena,
besando el cañaveral.
En algo nos parecemos,
luna de la soledad:
yo voy andando y cantando,
que es mi modo de alumbrar.
I don't sing to the moon
because it lights up and nothing else…
I sing to her because she knows
of my long walk.
Oh lunita tucumana
Calchaqui drum...
companion of the gauchos
on the paths of Tafi.
Lost in the fences
who knows little darling where I'll be...
but when the moon rises,
I will sing, I will sing...
to my dear tucuman,
I'll sing' I'll sing' I'll sing'.
With hope or with sorrow,
in the fields of Acheral,
I have seen the good moon,
kissing the cane field
In something we are alike,
moon of loneliness:
I go walking and singing,
which is my way of lighting.
