Los Inundados

Bramando se viene el agua

del Paraná

creciendo noche y día

sin parar.

Ranchada, barranca, tronco

se llevará

con viento y aguacero

el Paraná.

Mi rancho hasta la cumbrera

ya se anegó

ni el ceibo ni el aromo

tienen flor.

Estaba triste la tarde

cuando me fui;

cantó su dulce queja

el yerutí.

Por el río navegando

la canoa va cargada

redes, palos, aparejos

los salvé de la ranchada.

Por el río volveré

a Santa Fe.

El agua vino bramando

pobre quedé

ni rancho ni cobija

he de tener.

No me han de sacar del pago

donde nací

peleando a la corriente

he de vivir.

El cielo ya está limpiando

vuela el chajá

calandrias y crestudos

cantan ya.

Así ha de llegar día

en que volveré

a levantar mi rancho

en Santa Fe.
