Vos sos la criolla más hermosa
La que ha dado a las pampas argentinas
Todo el fuego de su amor
Vos sos la criolla legendaria de un pasado
Que ha dejado en nuestras almas
Un recuerdo alentador
Vos sos la luz, el Sol
El aire suave, embriagador
Vos sos el dulce trino
Que modula el ruiseñor
Yo soy un pobre peregrino sin consuelo
Que contempla marchitada para siempre su ilusión
El que canta eternamente bajo el cielo
Esperando que le pagues algún día su pasión
Vos sos la luz, el Sol
El aire suave, embriagador
Vos sos el dulce trino
Que modula el ruiseñor
Vos sos el alma de la raza
Que se estampa en las clásicas guitarras
Y en el dulce pericón
Vos sos la criolla más hermosa de la pampa
Que ha llenado de esperanza
Mi doliente corazón
Vos sos la luz, el Sol
El aire suave, embriagador
Vos sos el dulce trino
Que modula el ruiseñor
Vos sos el alma de esta raza bendecida
Donde cantan los zorzales
Y gorjea al ruiseñor
Vos sos la dulce serenata adormecida
Que al son de cien guitarras
Cantara un buen cantor
Vos sos la luz, el Sol
El aire suave, embriagador
Vos sos el dulce trino
Que modula el ruiseñor
