Grito Santiagueño

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

En los ranchos nací,

Me llaman "el bandeño"

Algún mistol supo acunarme

De changuito en mis sueños

"Araranti upiay"

Va cantando mi caja

Y una copla sigue a la luna

Buscando la mañana

Cuando canto siento

Que es el duende quechua

Que tira de mis venas

Me hace gritar

Al vidalear nuestras tristezas

Yo soy cantor vidalero

De mi tierra santiagueña

Soy cantor, busco el sol

Vidaleando hasta el sueño

Mi caja está enamorada

Del grito santiagueño

Cuando muera, tal vez

Mezclado con la tierra

Florezca en vaina de algarroba

En alguna primavera
