Por el guaymallén
El duende del agua va
Llevando una flor
De greda y de sol
Que despertará en el riego
La voz vegetal
Del huarpe que está
Dormido en su paz mineral.
Se va tu caudal
Por el valle labrador
Y al amanecer
Se oye padecer
La pena del surco ajeno
Verano y rigor
Va de sol a sol
La sombra del vendimiador.
Dorada zamba del riego,
El agua te cantará
Cuando ande en la voz
Del vino cantor
La vendimia de mi pueblo
Y suba un rumor
De acequia y canción
Por el rumbo agrario del sol.
Solar regador
Tonada del totoral
La luna rural
Te ha visto regar
El sueño de mis abuelos
Y luego entonar
Con el regador
El vino sufrido del peón.
Canal fundador
Algún día bajarás
Trayendo en tu voz
De menta y cedrón,
Tonadas de vino nuevo
Y entonces te irás
Conmigo a cantar
Cogollos de amor y de paz.
