En la zamba de los valles
Se alborozan las espuelas
Arando juego de amores
Sobre la tierra salteña
Cuando hay fiesta en cafayate
Cualquier senda es buena senda
Ponchos, relinchos y cantos
Son pura bulla en la huella
Criollitas de tolombón
Gauchos de la estancia vieja
Mozos de cachi llegando
Con sus cajas bagualeras
El músico toca zambas
Con su violín de tres cuerdas
Y apurando los repiques
El bombo marca las vueltas
Cuando llega el carnaval
Cafayate es buena tierra
Hasta los vientos se alegran
Bailando con las arenas
