La piragua, la piragua
La piragua, la piragua
Me contaron los abuelos que hace tiempo
Navegaba en el Cesar una piragua
Que partía del Banco viejo puerto
A las playas de amor en Chimichagua
Capoteando el vendaval se estremecía
E impasible desafiaba la tormenta
Y un ejército de estrellas la seguía
Tachonando-la de luz y de leyenda
Era la piragua de Guillermo Cubillos
Era la piragua, era la piragua
Doce bogas con la piel color majagua
Y con ellos el temible Pedro Albundia
En las noches a los remos le arrancaban
Un melódico rugir de hermosa cumbia
Doce sombras, ahora viejos ya no reman
Ya no cruje el maderamen en el agua
Solo quedan los recuerdos en la arena
Donde yace dormitando la piragua
