(Canción andina)
Caminito del indio
Sendero colla
Sembrao de piedras
Caminito del indio
Que junta el valle con las estrellas
Caminito que anduvo
De sur a norte
Mi raza vieja
Antes que en la montaña
La pachamama se ensombreciera
Cantando en el cerro
Llorando en el río
Se agranda en la noche
La pena del indio
El Sol y la Luna
Y este canto mío
Besaron tus piedras
Camino del indio
En la noche serrana
Llora la quena su honda nostalgia
Y el caminito sabe
Quién es la chola
Que el indio llama
Se levanta en el cerro
La voz doliente de la baguala
Y el camino lamenta
Ser el culpable
De la distancia
Cantando en el cerro
Llorando en el río
Se agranda en la noche
La pena del indio
El Sol y la Luna
Y este canto mío
Besaron tus piedras
Camino del indio
