VIVA JUJUY

(Argentine)          

Bailecito
Viva Jujuy, viva la Puna,
viva mi amada.
Vivan los cerros pintados rojeados
de mi quebrada.
De mi quebrada
Humahuaqueña.
No te separes de mis amores,
tú eres mi dueña.
La, la ...
No te separes de mis amores,
tú eres mi dueña. 		Long live Jujuy*, long live the Puna**,
long live my beloved.
Long live the rosy painted hills
of my valley.
Of my valley
of Humahuaca.
Don't withdraw yourself from my love,
you are my master.

Don't withdraw yourself from my love,
you are my master.
Viva Jujuy y la hermosura
de las jujeñas,
Vivan las trenzas bien renegridas
de mi morena.
De mi morena,
Coyita mía.
No te separes de mis amores,
tú eres mi vida.
La, la ...
No te separes de mis amores
Tú eres mi vida. 		Long live Jujuy and the beauty
of the Jujeñan women.
Long live the jet-black braids
of my dark woman.
Of my dark woman,
my little Coya***.
Do not separate yourself from my love,
you are my life.

Do not separate yourself from my love,
you are my life.
* A province in the northwest corner of Argentina.
