Recitado
Existe en nuestra campiña
En todas sus latitudes
Personajes que por algo
Van pasando a la leyenda
Este, a quien aquí cantamos
El Kangui, manté lo llaman
Y habita por nuestros campos
Solo, sin rancho ni prenda
Cómo andarás, gaucho triste
Aporreao por el destino
Llevando así tu nostalgia
Sin quererla revelar
Más, admiro tu entereza
Que ni el vino ni la caña
Hace mella en tu conciencia
Tu consigna, es trabajar
Cantado
Fumando el cigarro de hoja
Rumiando pena se le ve andar
Montando siempre en su zaino
Al tranco largo sale a vagar
Nadie su nombre conoce
Todos lo llaman manté el Kangui
Se ignora de dónde vino
Y por qué causa oikó asy
Kangui, Kangui
Mbaé nde rasy
Fue algún amor?
Quien alejó
De tu vivir
El sonreír
En los bailes no conversa
Solo la música va a escuchar
En las carreras, si juega
Sin comentarios sabe apostar
En el tiempo de la yerra
Por las estancias va a trabajar
En el manejo del lazo
Difícil alguien lo ha de igualar
