Zambita arribeña
De donde vendras...!
Quien sabe que ausencias
Y que nostalgias
Lloraras...
Alla en las quebradas
Y en el pajonal
Se estira tu canto como un lamento
Del piedral.
Por esos cerros se llevan los cientos
Los tristes acentos de mi soledad
A veces el llano
Se vuelve canto
En el andar.
Zambita arribeña
Tal vez un amor
Te dio la tristeza que en estos tiempos
Sufro yo.
Caminos andando
Quien sabe por que
Igual que la zamba, con un recuerdo vivire.
Por esos cerros se llevan los vientos
Los tristes acentos de mi soledad
A veces el llanto
Se vuelve canto
En el andar
