Silk Stockings

In the evening, by car, with the top down,
You go out for a ride filled with pride,
With your skirt as short as possible
Because you want to show off your legs.
 
Legs that are wearing, very coquettishly,
Beige silk stockings
That make even prettier the little shoes
That your tiny feet are showcasing.
 
[Chorus:]
Fine silk stockings,
The ones that you love so very much!
Fine silk stockings
That have a mysterious allure...
And, in the maddened temptation
Of your most intimate affairs,
You threw out those others
That were so humble, made out of cotton.
 
First stockings, then dresses,
Later on a haircut à la garçon.
Good quality hats, expensive jewels
And a very pretty little love nest.
 
Driven around, each night you go to ...
Hard partying, a senseless glamour!
Those fine silk stockings were the ones
That brought about your perdition!
 
[Chorus:]
Fine silk stockings,
The ones that you love so very much!
Fine silk stockings
That have a mysterious allure...
And, in the maddened temptation
Of your most intimate affairs,
You threw out those others
That were so humble, made out of cotton.
 

La overa

Yesterday in the afternoon I went out
a little fierce horse
father saddling and leaning on
a post (made of) ñandubay.
 
More or less at midnight
my head heavy, drunk,
when I went around your ranch
I was singing overito (I was singing mixing both Quichua and Spanish).
 
Agitated, hitting, going,
I heard in the lagoon
and in my horse´s haunches
I carried the Moon.
 
(Chorus)
 
And when arriving in Salavina
I dansed the chacarera
and I sang in Spanish
mixed with the Overa (Quicha).
 
II
 
Going through a little way
a lot of goats I found,
a cowbell hung up,
a chacarera I heard (it would actually be: listened to).
 
In the distance it can be seen
a little ranch in the jumiales (type of tree)
and a white cattle
crossing the saltpetre beds
 
With my fierce horse
at a gallop I went down
Blanca Pozo, Rubia Paso,
Colonia Dora y Mailín.
