(Cachimbo)
Si vas a cruzar la pampa
detente en la salitreras;
allá verás cómo brotan
sudor y sangre mineras.
Si el desierto está vacío
no culpes a tus hermanos,
que el tiempo, el oro y mi canto
ya no van mano tras mano.
El cachimbo que bailabas
se refugió en la montaña.
En las salitreras:
sudor y sangre mineras.
Si vas a cruzar la pampa
busca una moza morena.
La verás en el camino
que sube a la salitrera.
Confórtala por la ausencia
de tantos seres queridos.
Que no me guarde rencor
por el tiempo que ha perdido.
